YA
Chan meets charming "Paul" online and becomes obsessed with him--to the detriment of baton-twirling, schoolwork, and other relationships. She rationalizes her lies and bad decisions until her little sister is threatened, forcing Chan to face the truth. Chan is sometimes more message than character (she also has an STD), but the book's still an engrossing read.
