bits of chocolet

LaDale,

No, I don't think you are too desensitized. It probably has to do with how we, as a family, tends to read. I know that I tend to "skip" over the words I don't want in my mind, or paragraphs I find boring or objectionable or whatever. I know that there are many, in fact most, of the people who cannot read that way. They read like they talk, every word. If I did that, I think I would feel somewhat like the woman in your group about the language. However, I am so grateful that I can read so many good books and not take the evil from them, only the good. I don't think you even saw those words in this book, I think your brain just skipped over them. Hope this helps some!
