Kay's Rave (from Harper Library's resident 20-something, Kayleigh George)
The Summer of Naked Swim Parties

The Summer of Naked Swim Parties

Trade Paperback

E-book
Fourteen-year-old Jamie will never forget the summer of 1976. It's the summer when she has her first boyfriend, cute surfer Flip Jenkins; it's the summer when her two best friends get serious about sex, cigarettes, and tanning; and it's the summer when her parents throw naked swim parties, leaving Jamie flushed with embarrassment. Most of all, it's the summer that forever changes the way Jamie sees the things that matter: family, friendship, love, and herself.

We follow Jamie through nearly every teen rite of passage�first love, first broken heart�all set against the backdrop of the sexually promiscuous 70s. In a sparkling debut novel, Jessica Anya Blau displays ample talent, showing us that Jamie's parents, problems, and inner thoughts aren't too different from our own. The Summer of Naked Swim Parties is the perfect summer read�deeply funny, but teeming with insight. I�d recommend it to high school students, young adults, and parents who grew up in the 70s themselves. Happy reading!

"This book will make you laugh and cry in public."
�Larry Doyle, author of I Love You, Beth Cooper
