For parents who are looking for book reviews written with Teens and Preteens in mind. My kids read a LOT, and not all books(or movies, TV shows, video games etc.)are appropriate for children. I don't do much of the others, but I can read!

Julie and Julia By Julie Powell
I reviewed this on my Facebook Page already, but since I am still reading it, I thought it still relevant to the blog. I could review it before I was finished, because the appropriateness level was quickly measured at "not". As a Mom Tested Book, it failed. As for Me-tested, it's a go. I find it charming and relatable, having forged through a bit of Julia myself. Really, a trip to the DMV is easier than hard-boiled eggs JC style. But, the author is a true, occasionally faulty, admittedly potty mouthed adult. Save for the formerly innocent reader.

This book did not hold my interest nearly so much as My Life in France (Julia Child). In fact, I would recomend reading MLIF before going to see the movie (or DVD) Julie and Julia.
