2. My dad gets my mom something for Mother's day. And she gets him something for Father's day. These days it's a card. I have a hunch that she doesn't get Jonboi anything for Father's day (even though he's Trin's stepfather, and seems to have a good relationship with her). I would (though, I'm also the kind of person to give my ex a card if we had a kid)
3. And, I have to comment on the whole thing about her and teens reading her books.
I would have given her props if she said, "Yes, I write about sex and violence. While I wouldn't recommend this for teens, since I would not like Trin to read it at her age, I do understand that people mature at different rates. I encourage the parents to review the books, and if they feel it what they want their kids to read, to pass the books on."
That I'd give props to since it implies that she not only knows her books are full of sex, but also that it's not really kid friendly. The way she said it, however, made it sound like it was just, "Huh, oh well".
It weirds her out? Then why not do something about it! Don't just go, "oh well"! Realize that your books are being picked up by kids, impressionable kids at that! Do something about it!
I don't think she's as weirded out as she wants us to believe.
