First off, if you can not handle sarcasm or harsh humor don't read this. I mean really, it is hilarious I laughed so hard I almost peed myself! However, if you have a stick up your ass when it comes to humor just walk away. Or don't, maybe this will help plunge that stick out of it.I follow a lot of blogs on Facebook and a few of them had this read listed as a MUST READ. Well we all know how the "must reads" of Facebook and goodreads work.. so I held off. But after Following Anthony Paull on Facebook I HAD to read this book. I figured if the book is half as funny and original as his Facebook posts it'll be worth it. IT WAS!To the Review:Desperations Lingers is a Guidance Counselor at a second chance high. But she doesn't mesh with the kids.But, by a happy accident(not so at the time but it turns into one) she starts to hold "class" for a special teen and then a few others join in.While teaching these students she is also learning a lesson herself. Almost realizing too late just how important some of the people in her life have become.As a aspiring high school teacher( I have 3 more semesters of school) and as a sister and daughter of high school teachers let me say that Anthony Paull NAILED the attitude of these teens. Thruought the read you learn a lot about the bitchy heroine and also a few nuggets of wisdom.  By the end you are in love with all of the characters and you see that maybe it's really truly ok to just love yourself and the life you are living.If you are looking for a read that isn't heavy. That isn't going to be the same virgin 21 year old falling for the 26 year old man whore then this is the book for you! Hell, parts of it should be framed and worshipped. If nothing else it's only $3, try it! I DARE YOU!A few quotes that I LOVED!!!"You're not in prison. You're not that dangerous… Tell me, do you like the idea? Prison? Hot showers with indiscriminate men?""What?" he asks."A little Oopsie in your Poopsie" << This line.. Is far too funny!"We all connect. When one raindrop goes missing we each feel the splash""Abstinence isn't a realistic option for everyone. I understand that. But why not save yourself for a man who's willing to work for it?… What's wrong with being selective" << A FREAKING MAN!"but, what is your worth?"
