review 1: After reading the book, i finally understand what a teenage boy minds is like and i think its digusting. i mean that whole thing with bases i didn't really get and the way coop and the other kids treat poor helen is awful. the book was halirious though and the way coop seems to be just like his dad seems funny to me; apple doesn't fall to far from the tree. I haven't read the prequel, but sure it would be just as funny as this. I honestly swept through the 400 pages it was great.
review 2: This book is about a popular 10th grade guy being pared up with the school's most unpopular girl for a semester-long health project on safe-sex. This was an amazing jam packed, hilarious book targeted mainly for eighth grade boys and up. It is a bit more mature of a book b... moreut it is amazingly interesting, funny and relatable. This book gives girls an insight of guys thoughts and reveals what guys think and worry about. The strengths of this book is that it is super funny and people have similar stories or can relate to this one in other ways. There are however no weaknesses found in this book other than the boys' mind being side tracked by girls and some dirty, perverted things along the way. This book was really good because since I am a girl it made me think if guys really do think about girls as much as we may think about them and if they worry about the same things. It is also great as an insight of the opposite sex and their reactions to different events that place over a period of time. less
