boy humor
somewhat raunchy
probably best for 9th graders
absolutely hilarious ( )

A fun book to remind you of the awkward time of being a boy at 15. ( )

Pretty raunchy at time but always pretty funny especially with an annoying dad who is just as bad as the high school boys whom this book is really about. A good and funny read. ( )

Hilarious adventures of friends trying to see a naked girl. ( )

The book,"Swim The Fly" by Don Calame tells the coming of age story of a boy named Matt Gratton and his two best friends, Sean and Coop. Every summer the boys challenge themselves to complete a task and this time they decided they were going to see a girl naked in person. While Matt struggles to accomplish this goal, he must also worry about competing in his swimming team's butterfly race. The book is a humorous tale of teenage boys going through the motions of life while still trying to deal with personal goals. In my opinion, it has great pacing as well as memorable characters, such as Matt's grandpa who is desperately trying to score a date with their neighbor whose husband just died. It is an enjoyable read that will keep you coming back just to find out what happens next. I rate it 4/5 stars. ( )
