I read it recently. Great book. As far as the 16 year old...it depends on the person. I'm 16, though, and I am not scarred for life or anything. I thought it was thought provoking and beautifully tragic. If what you're worried about is the reference to Lolita in the title, a lot of the book does center around the reading of that book, but it's nothing inappropriate. I would recommend it, actually.

- It is on my shelf. I keep MEANING to read it. This thread is reminding me to do so. (Great insights, AgnusDei.)

- Thank you! Wonderful! I just bought it as a holiday gift for a 16 year-old, avid reader. I read a review, but haven't yet read the book, so I very much appreciate your help :)
