This is review I got from Stanford PhD who is adolescent health expert.
Choices started out as a made for tv movie idea, and I would still like to see that happen. Still trying to figure out the She Writes site and how to post things! Your book is in Santa Fe library ... and I have just put a request in for it!

Hi again, Kate. What a great tool with the girls, and probably wonderful fodder for story ideas, too. I'm really excited to read Choices. I also have been working with teens struggling with religiosity and moral dilemmas, so I'm happy to "meet" you. My only YA novel out now ( and out of print but available online) is Jake Riley: Irreparably Damaged. I've got a new one, Chasing AllieCat coming out in 2011.
Thanks for asking. I really am impressed with what you're doing.

"Actually, yes, I love that idea. Sounds like a triple win. Sounds like everything you've thought to add is exactly what I'd suggest. When would you like to post it? You're welcome to do it this month, if you'd like. Cheers "
