Read the first chapter of Sandpiper and part of chapter two, so far I have only encountered two words that anyone could have a problem with (both are slang terms for the male anatomy).
She talks about how in 8th grade her and her 2 friends were desperate for boyfriends and discovered that oral sex was the fastest way to a guys heart. In high school things changed for her friends Melissa and Allie who took honors classes, joined the student council, played field hockey and got real boyfriends, but not for her. Sandpipers is still hooking up with guys, sometimes guys she doesn't even like. When her attempts to brush Andrew ( her latest hookup) off in Blessingame Park turn nasty, she calls 'The Walker" over who plays along with her act to convince Andrew she is with "The Walker" in order to get rid of him. She walks with "The Walker" for awhile and discovers that he is 18, he doesn't drive and he doesn't ride in cars. She doesn't learn his name though and he insist on walking on alone, but says he will see her around. She also reveals why her parents named her Sandpiper (a terrible thing to do to a child).
In chapter two she is meeting her Mother's fiancee (Nathan) and his daughter (Rachael) at the airport, with her Mother (Colleen) and her younger sister Daisy. After going to lunch they meet her Mother's friend Adrienne to pick out bridesmaids dresses. The dresses Colleen wants look great on petite Rachael and Daisy, but make Sandpiper look like a s*** due to her large boobs, and don't even come in Adrienne's size. The saleswoman suggest having all the bridesmaids wear different dresses in styles that suit them. (one word that some people could have a problem with)
