Publisher's summary

The Happenstances at the Yellow County Community Swim and Racquet Club the Summer Before Last is a bittersweet, nostalgic, but comic novella about a team of misfits, including a loser who secretly lives in the guard house of the club, a struggling artist with webbed toes, a timid teen with a concave chest, and the beautiful heiress of the Comfort Inn fortune. They have to win the impending Tri-County Relay Race and save the club from being run by a management company that only cares about money. The management company hires an opposing relay team of ringers including a girl with a prosthetic dorsal fin and a man named Carmichael Schmelps who looks suspiciously like a certain Olympic gold medalist.

Fresh and Fun

This book full of fun vivid characters and nostalgia! Like a good 90s comedy, I found myself rooting for this rag tag group. Although their stakes seem low, their passion for their community pool kept me hooked. Stoked to read the next one!

The Wet Hot American Summer of books

This book is goofy and campy in the best way. I'm impressed with how well the author reads his own book. Looking forward to the next in the series.
