Must-Read!

I really loved this book. The thoughts that crossed Elvins mind were entertaining and hilarious. I'm reading it for the second time now...


Must Read! Extreme Elvin!


Extreme Elvin by Chris lynch is the best fiction book I've ever read. I would recommend this book mostly for kids going into, or in grades 8-12. I could relate to this book a lot because I am in my first year of high school, and so was Elvin. Elvin was a freshman in high school that had to learn what was cool, and what wasn't so he could earn a "reputation" and not be looked upon as an outsider. He was always trying to please the most popular kids and get invited to as many parties' possible. Going through girlfriends and breakups, Elvin was quite a character.

The author Chris Lynch is a wonderful writer. He captures the minds of teens and has a hilarious sense of humor, yet an easy read for your enjoyment. He keeps your attention by showing what really goes on in a typical day in high school. There was always something going on in this book, never a dull moment! Chris Lynch keeps you always wanting more! I couldn't put this book down from the moment I started!

Extreme Elvin was okay

The book Exreme Elvin writtin by Chris Lynch was a very confusing book. It always had me looking back to see if I missed something or forgot to read a page or something. On certain parts in the book, it seemed like it just randomly changed scenes. At one point Elvin was at school then the next he was at a store. But the storyline was great! I enjoyed it. My favorite chapter would have to be "By the Hand" because it got really exciting. It just made you want to jump in the book and punch Mikie right in the face because of how he was forcing Elvin to talk to the skinny girls and not the chubby girl he wanted to talk to. I would have to say this story was appropriate for high school student and some middle school students because it talked about the troubles of high school and girlfriends and stuff. It also had a lot of bad language and mentioned some adult things.

Extreme Elvin is Extremely Funny

Elvin is an overweight kid who is starting high school. Unlike his two best friends Frankie and Mike, he is not prepared for what high school has in store for him. He is overwhelmed by the concept of his weight, meeting girls at the school dance, and the peer pressure of some high school seniors who more or less are feared by everyone in the all boys school. This is a hilariously funny book that shows how Elvin's "relationships" with his best friends and mother (and to-be girlfriend) are unique and special. This is a great read, and anyone in jr. high or high school who has a funny, wise guy sense of humor and is not afraid to laugh out loud should read it.

The book i read was Extreme Elvin

Extreme Elvin by Chris Lynch was really funny. I can't believe that Elvin is so shy to get a girl. Well I enjoyed this book and i liked how the author wrote it to be so funny. I think someone that is like Elvin can learn from it. Also I think this book is appropriate for high school. It mentioned alot of adult things in it and language. But Elvin had to change his whole personallity in like two months. I think Elvin changed alot and the way his friends wanted him to. Some parts of the book was boring and it took along time for it to get really intersting. I liked the chapter when Elvin had the girl he liked over and ate with them. It was funny when Elvin would talk to himself and then say it out loud and people would look at him funny. I would recommend this book because it was really good, funny, and it makes you want to know what is going to happen next.

I used to have a mother, and a friend, and anotherfriend. Now I got relationships.

Elvin Bishop is fourteen--an official Young Adult. Having barely survived the sports camp that he and his best friends, Frankie and Mikie, attended in SLOT MACHINE, Elvin is actually ready for high school to begin. Or so he thinks.

Suddenly, he's hurled into a whole now social scene, where relationships-the right relationships--are the name of the game. Leave it to Elvin to fall for exactly the wrong kind of girl--the kind of girl who is definitely not a part of any guy's cool plan. And that's just the beginning of his problems. With an appetite that forces him to shop at the Big and Tall, a mother who still talks to her long-dead husband, and a nasty case of hemorrhoids, is becoming cool something that Elvin can even pull off?
