I liked this book. The first part, where the reader reads parts of Albert-Jan's diary I found not so good. Quite detached for me clearly written not by a young teenager, but by a grown up.
The part from Monique's view (also diary form) was a lot better.
Every now and then I still heared the adult voice, but it was less obvious than in Albert-Jan's part.
I got annoyed a bit, by the flash back to the old days: the role women were supposed to play, how was looked at single mums (who hadn't even been married!).
It also brought back a voice I hadn't heared a long time. Junior's teacher in elementary school made the same remark to me as was made in the book: that I should find a man / get married to be able to give my son the upbringing he needs.... Only reading it made me furious all over again.
The fact that this book has the theme it does, also makes that it is quite outdated now. (Well, at least for the my generation and most of the people who are now young.) I'm not sure if it is still read a lot by teenagers nowadays. Junior didn't like it: he could not relate to Albert-Jan at all.
A pity, because the books still has an important message: all people are equal, no matter what their sex, color, belief or nature. That still deserves to be told (as long as the pope airs messages like he did earlier this week....!) ( )
