Questionable review

Overall the content of the Catholic Spirit has been informative and in line with Catholic teaching. The Catholic Spirit’s “Summertime and the reading is easy” section (July 11, 2019) states, “the following books make for some fine summer reading.” “Sydney and Calvin Have a Baby” by Adrienne Thorne is about rape, pornography and casual teenage sex and birth control. Really! fine summertime reading? There are so many good quality books for teens which could have been reviewed. The Catholic Spirit missed the mark on this one.
