Lex by James Mylet
Lex is seventeen. But being seventeen is a rollercoaster ride, and Lex is about to run into trouble. If he survives the humiliation of his final summer in his hometown, he is determined to go out with a bang. And he will, but it might not be quite what he had in mind. This coming-of-age novel will make you remember everything about your teens - the good, the bad, the embarrassing ...and the very ugly!
