A. Bates's Party Line

from Teen Creeps

This week Kelly and Katai read PARTY LINE by A. Bates, the touching story of a boy who gains his confidence with girls by eavesdropping on their conversations on a paid phone line and then tries to solve some kidnappings. They discuss the former popularity of teen hotlines, their hot and cold relationship with the book, how you probably shouldn't take a self-defense class from a dude who teaches you to fight dirty, and how extending empathy to kidnappers should have its limits.
