A Goodreads user asked this question about Dark Places:
what would be the age rating for this ? im 14 and im not sure if this is appropriate ?
Beth This book is for adults, not appropriate for 14 year olds. Just because it is about children, does not mean anyone under the age of 18 should read it.…moreThis book is for adults, not appropriate for 14 year olds. Just because it is about children, does not mean anyone under the age of 18 should read it. You are right to feel disturbed about it. IT is also disturbing for adults, but adults can much better handle the material. talk to your parents or a librarian about books suitable for kids your age. THERE ARE a lot of great books for 14 year Olds out there. In the mean time, talk to your parents about the upsetting material in this book. they can help you feel better. Remember, this book is fiction, not a true story. I am glad you had the courage to ask this question about this book. good for you!
