M or F?
By Lisa Papademetriou and Chris Tebbets






Description (from back of book):

When Frannie is desperate to get the attention of her crush, her fabulous (and gay) best friend Marcus suggests that Frannie chat with him online. Too bad Frannie's terrified. She won't type a word without Marcus's help.
In the chat room, Marcus and Jeffrey hit it off. But the more Marcus writes, the more he's convinced that Jeffrey is falling for him not Frannie.
Whose romance is this anyway?

Review:
When I found this book at the bookstore, I read about two pages before I knew I needed to buy it. It's a cute story about both characters finding love, and it's a light read if you need something to cheer you up. I laughed often enough my mom kept ducking into my room to see what I was doing.
Its highschool setting is easy to relate to; typical, with it's ups and downs all over the place. Any girls out there can relate to Frannie as she tries to impress Jeffrey, and instead just makes herself feel dorky and a bit embarrassed.
I was not able to predict the end of this book- I honestly did not see it coming, and it made a wonderful and sweet twist.
Rating: I gave this book 3 1/2 stars out of 5 (but I was very, very close to giving it 4)
Profanity: miniscule, if any.
Drugs and Alcohol: None
Sexual content: None
Violence: None

  2. the book sounds pretty good. im not so sure about a gay guy falling for his best friends (who is a girl) crush. kinda makes you think about how people really do feel makes you think more about life and the choices you need to make
