The Disreputable History of Frankie Landau–Banks by E. Lockhart

This effervescent novel is part mystery, part romance, and part case study of a unique girl named Frankie Landau–Banks. Between her freshman and sophomore years at elite Alabaster Preparatory Academy, Frankie blossoms from a scrawny, awkward child into a beautiful, curvaceous young lady. She immediately catches the eye of popular senior Matthew Livingston, who draws Frankie into his influential circle of friends. When she discovers that he’s a part of an all–male secret society called the Loyal Order of the Basset Hounds, she hopes he will include her or, at the very least, confide in her about the group. But Frankie slowly realizes that although Matthew finds her adorable, he will never welcome her into his boys–only club. Increasingly dissatisfied with her role as Matthew’s arm candy, Frankie capitalizes on a family connection to the Basset Hounds to infiltrate their network and mastermind a series of pranks that shakes up the entire school. How does she orchestrate the, um, bosomy Library Lady, Night of a Thousand Dogs, the Canned Beet Rebellion, and the Abduction of the Guppy? And can she possibly get away with it?
