this book disappointed me. it took about fifteen minutes to read, and it just dipped its little baby toe in the whole sex-religion-mommy thing.

I hear you, Lixxx! Are Steinke's other books like this (handling large issues lightly)? I want more of the mother, for obvious reasons (she's crazy!).
have you read jesus saves? she has a kind of casualness (re: large issues handled lightly), but somehow it's much deeper and more satisfying... i was really excited about milk, but when i was done, it was gone.
