Work Description
When Rowena's handsome English teacher invites her to a poetry reading, the shy high school girl changes overnight from a wallflower to an attractive, much-sought-after femme fatale.

Stephanie A. Ap 07, 2018 4 of 5 stars really liked it Review of SAME STORY IN another ed.
"She's a real Bonnie Sue Detweiler!" This book could go in a time capsule of 1980s teen books. Or maybe just early 80s teen culture in general? I don't know, I wasn't around then, but this book starts with a girl obsessively worried about her lack of sexual experience, as defined by a magazine in four easy categories of awkward driving metaphors (I assume to correspond with the outdated term of "being fast"): haven't left the garage, crawling along/probably lost and looking for a signpost, cruising along at a pretty good speed, or "out of control and heading for a crack-up." She's barely 15, but somehow, not scoring in the third or fourth category is mortifying to her. How awful!! Not like cool Bonnie Sue Detweiler!! ....

Gina Dec 05, 2017 3 of 5 stars-liked it. Review of SAME STORY IN another edition
A typical book about a high school girl with a crush on a teacher. The book does end happily. The reason I gave it this rating was because I wish there would've been a bit more detail at the ending. Rowena did come in to her own sort of. Maybe there are other books written about her, I'm not all that sure.
