Title: Great read, but not necessarily "innocent" or "classic"
Product review: I loved reading this book. It seems that most coming of age stories have a little something that everyone can relate to--the greatest strength of this work is how it brings its whole story to the level of something the average millenial can relate to.That being said, I don't believe this work is destined to become a classic. It seems to be a little bit too much of a product of it's time, while lacking that essential quality to become timeless. While many interesting things assemble the plot, the ending is a bit hackneyed and predictable.If you're not afraid to share things like casual pot use, smoking, sex & homosexuality in high schools (all of which except the latter should be pretty tame game by now), go ahead and suggest this book to one of your 80s kids.
