Disappointed but Well-Liked

I-reading all of Judy Blume's books-was rather disappointed with Then Again, Maybe I Wont. Maybe it's because I am a girl and it's coming from a boy's point of veiw...I really am not sure...but it other than that it was good. Some parts were unrealistic. Why would a fifth(going in to sixth) grader(the narrator and main charecter) watch a girl get undressed from his window??? Once again, maybe I don't understand the thrill...it just seems like something an older boy[maybe eighth grader) would do......anyways NOT recommended to anyone under the age of 12-the book talks about some mature things...

Just like "Are You There God?" for boys

As a fast read, this book is great. Boys twelve and thirteen can easily relate to Tony. Well, sort of. I live in the city, but that's just me. Anyway, the only problem I had was that is was too short. Better charachter development and possibly a more structured plot could have done the trick, but still a classic.

A Cute Book

'Then Again, Maybe I won't' is basically about a boy named Tony whose family struggles with money. He lives in an apartment with his parents, his brother Ralph & his wife Angie, and his grandmother who cannot speak because of a cancer she has. Money gets even tough when Angie announces she is having a baby, and the family dosen't have enough money to raise a baby. But, all of that changes when Tony's dad hits it big with an invention he created. And suddenly, the family is moving to Rosemont. Money comes very easy than, and they move into a big house in a rich neighborhood. Where Tony meets his new neighbor who becomes his bestfriend named Joel, who likes to shoplift for fun. and Than there is Joel's older sister Lisa, who Tony thinks is the most beautiful girl he's ever seen. But lots of problems start errupting when Joel's shoplifting habit gets out of hand. And when his mom hires a maid that causes his grandmother to not come downstairs. Joel will learn that money won't solve your problems and he'll learn that growing up can be difficult.

I think this book is influential because it tells you even when you have a lot of money, It dosen't mean all your problems will go away. And that alot of times, people can get caught up with all the money they have. Before I read this book, I thought just by reading the back that it was going to be a good book. Because I really like reading books that have a lot to do with teenage life. After reading this book, I was still happy. I thought this was a really great book to read, since it talked about adolescence years. This books tells me about ALL people, that we all kind of think alike as teenagers. And we tend to not always do the right thing. What I learned about others is that some people may seem perfect, but really noone is perfect. And you might think you know someone really good, but really you probably don't even know who they are. The style of this book is in paragraphs and chapters.

One of my favorite judy Blume books.

This is one of my favorite Judy Blume books (I've read all but about 2 of her books). This time it's written about a boy! I'd never really read a book about a boy going through puberty, so it was interesting to see Tony's point of view. I don't think it's too mature at all, I think it's appropriate for anyone about 12 and up. Boys and girls will like it. If you're ever looking for a good book to read, choose any Judy Blume title. Her best books are Just As Long As We're Together, Here's To You Rachel Robinson, Fudge-A-Mania, Superfudge, and Then Again, Maybe I Won't. Chose one of those titles, and I guarantee you'll love it.
