    About this audiobook

    The hilarious and razor-sharp story of how one girl went from geek to patriarchy-smashing criminal mastermind in two short years, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of We Were Liars and Genuine Fraud.

    * National Book Award finalist *
    * Printz Honor *

    Frankie Landau-Banks at age 14:

    Debate Club.
    Her father's "bunny rabbit."
    A mildly geeky girl attending a highly competitive boarding school.

    Frankie Landau-Banks at age 15:
    A knockout figure.
    A sharp tongue.
    A chip on her shoulder.
    And a gorgeous new senior boyfriend: the supremely goofy, word-obsessed Matthew Livingston.

    Frankie Landau-Banks.

    No longer the kind of girl to take "no" for an answer.
    Especially when "no" means she's excluded from her boyfriend's all-male secret society.
    Not when she knows she's smarter than any of them.
    When she knows Matthew's lying to her.
    And when there are so many pranks to be done.

    Frankie Landau-Banks, at age 16:

    Possibly a criminal mastermind.

    This is the story of how she got that way.

    Editor's Note

    For pranksters…

    This award-winning story from E. Lockhart (“We Were Liars”) will have you laughing out loud with its cutting commentary on gender politics and the distortions of people’s perceptions. Oh, there are also lots of pranks and practical jokes, too.
