I would venture to say that every single girl in my elementary school had read FITA before the end of 6th grade. It was forbidden fruit - my mother didn't want me reading it, and I read it anyway. The prose is deliciously purple, the characters and plot indelible, and the entire experience is so harmlessly scandalous as to make pre-teens feel like they are almost grownups. (The sequels get worse and worse, and I read every one of them anyway.) <br /><br /><br />I never did see the entirety of the previous film with Kristy Swanson - the clips I've seen are enough to know it's heinous. But I will certainly be watching this one - with Ellen Burstyn, who never met a piece of scenery she wouldn't chew, this should be a camp-fest for the ages.Marshanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3953654.post-51305165407481693392013-07-24T14:25:52.312-04:002013-07-24T14:25:52.312-04:00I loved this book as a tween, icky incest and all,...I loved this book as a tween, icky incest and all, and I cannot wait for the movie.
