Eh
I think this product is rather opening minds to sex than teaching to stay away from it. I have never heard of a rainbow party until I read this book I mean hello? Who wants their kids to learn about painting intimate parts on a guy? It basically revolves around who's having it who's not. Who's a good virgin who's not. I wouldn't recommend this book to someone I really cared about.

A window on the pressures of our youth
I just finished reading this book before possibly downloading it for my 16 year old. This is a message that teens need to hear but I think that some will not be ready for the locker room talk that is dealt with in this book. I'm in my forties and don't remember this sort of thing being discussed and even though I'm married I learned some things in the pages of 'Torch Red'. I would mostly recommend this book for girls that attend public school and are exposed to this sort of 'thing' week in and week out. A more sheltered teen would probably find this too much to handle. Although I don't agree with the author on every point I AM glad that someone is trying to reach our teens- I really had my eyes opened to some of the things they have to deal with. God help us to pray.

I had read the reviews for this book and was a little bit skeptical at first because the comments talked about it being a bit much as far as sex goes. But my thoughts were: it was Melody Carlson, how bad could it be. Now that I've read the book I get what the reviewers meant. This is a book that had a good message in the end, but the beginning was a bit gross and the main character's friends came out as being a little bit skanky. With that, take warning. If you don't like to read about sex or those issues then I would not recommend this book. It is informative though, as far as the consequences of sex, which is realistic. I would recommend this for an older teen.

Melody is an author that can hit a hard topic head out and not be to "preachy". This is a serious topic and it needs to be addressed in a godly way with every teenage girl. It is a great book! :)
