10th Grade

Jeremy Reskin has big plans for tenth grade -- he wants to make some friends, and he wants to take a girl's shirt off. It's not going too well at first, but when he meets a group of semibohemian outcasts, things start to change. Soon he's negotiating his way through group back robs and trying to find the courage to make a move on Renee Shopmaker, the hottest girl in school. At the behest of his composition teacher, Jeremy's also chronicling everything in his own novel -- a disastrously ungrammatical but unflinching look at sophomore year.
