![]() ![]() IDK, the vagueness makes it even weirder. I thought she was sixteen or seventeen, based on some of the things she said, but she doesn't have her license, which does point younger (although I got mine late). ![]() It seems like the author might have implicitly aged her up, but it's not clear. Now most concrete references to her age have been removed, except mentions that she's still "underage." I'm not sure she's still fifteen in this version. In the original, it looks like the heroine, Adrianna, was fifteen. And the part of me that internally stomps its foot and goes NO when people tell me not to do something I didn't even really want to do in the first place suddenly went, "Hmm, I kind of want to read this book now."īALANCE was actually pulled from Amazon and reworked, based on what I've seen in other reviews. Take me, I had no idea this book existed until I saw people talking about it on Twitter. Even if the buzz trends negative, the book will still spike in sales. I don't know if the book community realizes this, but when they "cancel" a book for being problematic, they're essentially just boosting it in the algorithm and informing people who didn't know that it existed that, well, it exists. ![]()
