Looking for a coming-of-age book about "Fex."

May 31, 2005 8:22 PM

There was a book I read in Jr. High about a shy, awkward teenage boy named Fex. Not Tex, "Fex." I am fuzzy on the details but I seem to recall he wore unfashionable cowboy shirts and/or cowboy boots -- I could be wrong on that -- and that he gets embarrassed at a party; that I'm sure of. Anyone else remember this?

Best answer: I googled "fex teenage novel" (sans quotes) and the only thing I could find was Double Dare O'Toole which is about a boy named Fex who can't resist dares. Maybe that's it? I couldn't find a better description, my apologies.

Response by poster: That's probably it. Thanks, angeline!

(I googled "fex teenage book," actually, prior to posting, and got nothing. %)
