Really though, this book shouldn't have been called Sam - it should've been called Sex. Because that is pretty much all that was on anyone's mind. There were some good messages about safe sex and some truly terrible ideas about relationships. I rated the fact that both the girls that want to have sex buy their own condoms so they're prepared. I rated that Sam wasn't pressuring anyone into a sexual relationship and was in fact the one having doubts. I hated that he then proceeds to ignore those doubts and go ahead with it all anyway. I wasn't too keen on Gaia planning to sleep with some other girl's boyfriend. I mean yeah, it's his responsibility but it seemed kind of icky. I also didn't love that Heather's planning to sleep with Sam to keep him and plans to lie about her virginity because she knows Gaia is a virgin and she doesn't want her to have something she can't give to Sam. I mean for fks sake. Honestly the teen angst was flying high and I was bored. I'm getting too old for this shit.
2.5 stars.
