Have you ever felt the way that you would do anything for one person in particular to notice you? Especially the one person who you are deeply, madly in love with.
This was the case for Frankie Landau-Banks, in The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks by E. Lockhart. Frankie spent her entire Freshman year of high school living in the shadow of her older sister Zada. It doesn't help either that the high school that she attends is a snobby boarding school where everyone is concerned with how things were run there years ago. But anyways, I digress.
Suddenly, it is her Sophomore year of high school and many things have changed for Frankie. She went from being an awkward looking preteen to a beautiful young women. But best of all is that her secret crush, Matthew Livingston, has now become her boyfriend. However, when Matthew starts spending more time with the fellow members of a secret society, The Loyal Order of the Basset Hounds, and will not till Frankie what it is all about; she comes up with a way to sneak herself into this secret society.
I really enjoyed reading The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks and I think that many teens, like you, will be able to enjoy it as well. It's a fun and pretty easy read that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
It also looks at love and dating in the teenage perspective. This novel shows how sometimes you will do anything to be in a relationship with another person. Sometimes even by losing who you are to please them. Frankie so badly wants to be apart of the secret society that Matt is in that she almost loses her mind to scheme her way into it.
If you are looking for an enjoyable read, I would definitely recommend The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau-Banks.
