The good reviews led me to begin reading this novel, however, I was blindsided as the reviews did not make mention of the pornographic content, (not needed to promote the storyline). I read until page 92 and determined that this is not a novel that advances my life. I was quite perturbed that I picked it up without an X rating on the cover and then proceeded to let my book club know (church book club) of its contents and that I would not continue to read this selection and felt it no longer met our criteria of quality best sellers . I have spent my career in public schools and would be quite concerned that this book would be made available to "any reader" that chose to take it out. The advertised storyline, of children learning their date of death, would be an intriguing reading selection for young readers. I am deeply distubed that so many adults gave this a positive review and I am left wondering what type of world we are inviting our young people into with this type of explicit exposure.
