Lowering the bar

Concerned that your teenage daughter isn't reading enough? Well, along comes books such as The Au Pairs, and The Gossip Girl . These tales are sure to ensnare the reluctant reader with their story lines of sex, drugs, and the social scene. I guess this follows the rule; it doesn't matter what they read, as long as they read.

I suppose that might be true, if your aim is to develop a future reader for Jackie Collins and Danielle Steel.
