YA
Frankie's boyfriend, Matthew, is the co-leader of an all-male secret society. By impersonating Matthew's cohort over e-mail, Frankie takes control of the society, secretly engineering campus-wide pranks. A clinical-sounding narrator addresses readers directly, giving the book a case-study vibe and presenting Frankie's exploits in a dispassionate way. Readers are left to make up their own minds about this unique, multifaceted individual.
