Sarah asked this question about Gone Girl:

Appropriate for mature teens?

Lucy Well, I'm 14 and I'm currently reading this book with only about 100 hundred pages to go. Do I believe this book is appropriate for mature teens? Yes.…moreWell, I'm 14 and I'm currently reading this book with only about 100 hundred pages to go. Do I believe this book is appropriate for mature teens? Yes. There is nothing in this book that I haven't heard before (in regards of language), I understand the sex and sexual references and personally am finding the book very interesting.

I think it really depends on the teenager and what the parents want their kid to be influenced by. My parents are quite liberal and have pretty much let me read or watch anything I like. And there have been times when I had to put down a book because I found it too mature or not suitable for my age. (less)
