Publisher Description

A Time Best YA Book of All Time (2021). Over 4 million copies sold!

Judy Blume’s groundbreaking novel about first relationships, first love, and…the first time—now with a stunning new look!

The bed is brass, covered with a patchwork quilt, and “nice and firm,” Michael says, “in case you’re interested.”

Katherine is interested.

Katherine and Michael are ready—for each other, for love. Katherine is ready for her first time. They are both ready for this to be forever. They are perfect together, inseparable. Until the summer separates them, and Katherine meets Theo. But she and Michael are truly in love. That means forever. Right? Is this really the love of a lifetime, or the very beginning of a lifetime of love?

Great book

This book was super good and I don’t regret reading it at all but there are just a few things I would change. First of all, it’s a little bit cringe. I say that only because of the fact the Michael named his penis “Ralph”. I couldn’t stand it. It’s also a little descriptive but it didn’t bother me that much. Also, I’m more attracted to male brunettes than red heads but whatever. Judy Blume is still my favorite author and this book is still great. But I don’t recommend reading this if your under the age of thirteen.

Forever

I absolutely didnt like this book, when i started reading it i thought it was entertaining, but as i kept reading I didnt think it was as good as they had told me, in some parts the book is too descriptive about sex, i kept reading because i thought the story was going to be worth it and i could just ignore the sex parts, but at the end i basically thought the whole point of this book was aboout sex and nothing else, it depends on your interests.

Forever, as in the 1980

I wouldn't buy this book in print nor on e-read version! This book is from the 80's or 90's, and as a student who had to read this for a college course on sex and gender, I hated this. I wouldnt read it for leisure. Sure, it might be helpful for parents of very young children(when they need the *S* talk about the birds and bees), but for a teen, 14+, this isn't the best.
This book is also severely outdated!
Yes, this book was written by Blume for her daughter, to give her a sense of hope but also a sense of reality as the child approached that sort of maturity.
This book involves "Ralph" which is the name of a boy's private part, and is used to reference said part, repeatedly throughout the novel.
This book, in the early chapters, provides a sense of "first love" and "puppy love" with the ever-wished-for 'boy is hormonal, girl doesn't want to move so fast, boy might not want to move so fast and doesnt pressure the girl at first' sort of motif.
**This involves peer pressure and sexual content, please be warned.
