Anastasia M asked Roseanna M. White:

Roseanna, At what age do you recommend reading your books? 13 or later 16? Thankyou for writing the way you do! I love the mystery and all the feelings that are brought up all the way till the last page of each book. Thank you for giving your books the Christian inspiration, a light, a meaning. Also reading your books, i learn so much history from that era it’s as if going back to 1914 and living with the characters!

Roseanna M. White Hi, Anastasia! I think it depends a lot upon the reader and what else they're reading. And which book. ;-) I'd say most of my titles are suitable for most teens--there's occasional violence, mention of (but never on page) things like sexual assault in some stories, abuse, etc...but I always strive to handle it with grace and sensitivity and NEVER explicitly. But the mafia story, for example, obviously mentions the seedy underbelly of the 1920s with things like prostitution, murder, and so on. Again, nothing explicit. I usually encourage parents or teens to make a judgement based on that knowledge and whatever their own level is. (So glad you enjoy and learn from my books!!)
