Super Good

Under Rose-Tainted Skies was a fantastic book.  It was one of those books I read just because it seemed interesting and it was short!  But I am so glad I did.  I don't even think that I read the full description, but this was such a powerful look at OCD and anxiety and hope and life and a real girl and a real mom and a real boy.
This might seem really odd, but one of the things I found most real and refreshing was the use of profanity!  It wasn't an overload, but it was there.  It was NORMAL!  If you don't like profanity, I really doubt you will be offended.  It was just so natural and normal and there isn't a lot of it.  I mean, people swear but most people don't use profanity in every conversation, or even every day and neither does Norah.  But sometimes, in extreme circumstances, a swear word is just the right word.  I don't mean to go on and on about it.  I just think it was real.
