false <![CDATA[Absolutely Positively Not]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1173837174m/334024.jpg 334024 2 Steven doesn't know if he'll pass his driver's test or if he'll ever understand his parents, but there's one thing he knows for sure: He's absolutely, positively NOT gay. How could he be, when he conscientiously collects photos of girls in bikinis and makes a point to sit at the jock table? So what if he takes a golden retriever to the dance because he can't face telling his mom that he doesn't have a date? So what if he thinks Coach Bowman is, well, extremely, unnervingly handsome. Who wouldn't? Right? David LaRochelle's first novel is a riotously funny look at the life of a regular boy who's finding out what it takes to be a real man. 324520 book 1 6 2005 Absolutely Positively Not (Sid Fleischman Humor Award) total:183|5:36|4:64|3:61|2:17|1:5| 183 658 267 59 1 0 false false Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 15 11:31:27 -0800 2009 Sun Feb 15 11:48:14 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Aug 30 20:50:13 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 04 21:50:28 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Feb 15 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Wed Feb 11 10:50:45 -0800 2009 Tue Mar 03 22:00:36 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 1 false false Wed Oct 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Thu Oct 02 13:27:51 -0700 2008 Wed Nov 12 11:12:04 -0800 2008 International Male!) and a lot more natural and less anvilicious than, say, Geography Club.]]> 4 0 false false Sun Jun 28 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 29 06:24:20 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 29 06:24:20 -0700 2009 Upon skimming some of these Goodreads reviews, I see that some readers call i...more...]]> 2 0 false false Wed Apr 15 08:58:43 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 15 22:57:03 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Mon Dec 29 16:34:48 -0800 2008 Mon Dec 29 16:42:21 -0800 2008 Totally Joe by James Howe.
