British guy pals Dino, Ben, and Jonathon think and talk about It-a lot. Each has his own romantic problems. Dino is wrapped around the finger of queen bee Jackie, who won't do the deed. Ben wants out of a secret relationship with his hot but less-than-stable teacher. Jonathon has extended conversations with his member, "Mr. Knobby Knobster," and longs to shag Deborah, a plumpish classmate. Will his friends understand? Adult readers will either recognize themselves in Dino, Ben, and Jonathon or cringe at the thoughts that go through their heads. It pretty much divides on gender lines. For fans of Superbad (starring Michael Cera, Jonah Hill, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, 2007). Why It Is for Us: This bro-mance starts raunchy and only grows more hilarious. The reader who can make it through the opening scene-a game of "Who would you do?" as in "Who would you do, the homeless lady down the street or.?"-can stomach its frank treatment of adolescent male sexuality.
