Synopsis
Despite the main character's transformation from gawky at 14 to a very hot 16, this is not an ordinary teen chick-lit book. It's all about amazing pranks, shrewd observations, and one very cool girl, Frankie Landau-Banks. A student at the elite Alabaster Academy, Frankie finds herself dating a senior, Matthew Livingston, who belongs to a secret society. Frankie craftily worms her way into the group and leads the way to some very excellent mischief. A 2009 Printz Honor Book, as well as a Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2008, and a New York Times Notable Children's Book of 2008.

Industry Reviews
"Lockhart has transcended the chick-lit genre with this adroit, insightful examination of the eternal adolescent push-pull between meekly fitting in and being liked or speaking out and risking disdain. A funny feminist manifesto that will delight the anti-Gossip Girl gang."
(01/01/2008)

"Frankie is a big fan of P.G. Wodehouse's books, and Lockhart's wholly engaging narrative, filled with wordplay, often reads like a clever satire about the capers of the entitled, interwoven with elements of a mystery. But the story's expertly timed comedy also has deep undercurrents."
(01/01/2008)

"An empowered female hero like Frankie is a rare and refreshing find. She is the ultimate feminist role model for teens: a girl with guts and imagination who's brave enough to take on the 'old boy's club.'"
(03/01/2008)

"Reader are left to make up their own minds about this unique, multifaceted individual while giving her space--and the attention--she so craves."
