A Goodreads user asked this question about Greenlights:
I'm a public school librarian on a 9th and 10th grade campus (ages 14-16)...in Texas...and I'm getting lots of requests for this book.

I know some classic authors shun basic English rules, but Matthew McConaughey certainly isn't in that category. Some good ol' commas and periods (and and editor) would've gone a long way in making this thing readable. (less)
