Morris YA Debut Award Finalist • An Asian Pacific American Librarians Association Honor Book “ Extraordinary . . . a beautifully layered novel about first love, tribalism and that brief, magical period when kids have one foot in high school, one foot out the door. . . Yoon explores themes of racism, forgiveness and acceptance without getting earnest or preachy or letting anyone off the hook.” — New York Times Two friends. One fake dating scheme. What could possibly go wrong? Frank Li has two names. There's Frank Li, his American name. Then there's Sung-Min Li, his Korean name. No one uses his Korean name, not even his parents. Frank barely speaks any Korean. He was born and raised in Southern California. Even so, his parents still expect him to end up with a nice Korean girl--which is a problem, since Frank is finally dating the girl of his dreams: Brit Means. Brit, who is funny and nerdy just like him. Brit, who makes him laugh like no one else. Brit . . . who is white. As Frank falls in love for the very first time, he's forced to confront the fact that while his parents sacrificed everything to raise him in the land of opportunity, their traditional expectations don't leave a lot of room for him to be a regular American teen. Desperate to be with Brit without his parents finding out, Frank turns to family friend Joy Song, who is in a similar bind. Together, they come up with a plan to help each other and keep their parents off their backs. Frank thinks he's found the solution to all his problems, but when life throws him a curveball, he's left wondering whether he ever really knew anything about love—or himself—at all. In this moving debut novel David Yoon takes on the question of who am I? with a result that is humorous, heartfelt, and ultimately unforgettable.","forthcoming":false,"isbn13":"9781984812223","publication_date":"20200901","publisher":"Penguin Young Readers Group","slug":"frankly-in-love","subtitle":"","title":"Frankly in Love"},"discovery":{"categories":{"all":[{"bisac_code":"YAF018060","confidence_band":"high","label":"YA Stories About Parents","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"YAF046130","confidence_band":"high","label":"Asian American YA","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"YAF052020","confidence_band":"high","label":"Contemporary YA Romance","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}],"hint":[],"publisher":[{"bisac_code":"YAF018060","confidence_band":"high","label":"YA Stories About Parents","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"YAF046130","confidence_band":"high","label":"Asian American YA","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"},{"bisac_code":"YAF052020","confidence_band":"high","label":"Contemporary YA Romance","score":1,"source":"onix_publisher_code"}]},"genres":[{"label":"YA Stories About Parents","score":1,"slug":"ya-stories-about-parents"},{"label":"Asian American YA","score":1,"slug":"asian-american-ya"},{"label":"Contemporary YA Romance","score":1,"slug":"contemporary-ya-romance"}],"reader_fit":["Good for readers who enjoy YA Stories About Parents","Good for readers interested in american","Good for fans of Romance"],"related_lists":[],"series":null,"similar_books":[{"authors":["Claire Ahn"],"book_id":"9780593403167","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780593403167.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":16.0651,"title":"Bad Influence","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780593403167"},{"authors":["Clare Osongco"],"book_id":"9781368101936","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781368101936.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":13.6502,"title":"Midnights With You","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781368101936"},{"authors":["Axie Oh"],"book_id":"9780063299306","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780063299306.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":13.5956,"title":"ASAP","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780063299306"},{"authors":["Shana Youngdahl"],"book_id":"9780525553861","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780525553861.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":12.8346,"title":"As Many Nows As I Can Get","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780525553861"},{"authors":["Patricia Park"],"book_id":"9780593563410","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9780593563410.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":12.822,"title":"What's Eating Jackie Oh?","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9780593563410"},{"authors":["Kat Cho"],"book_id":"9781368064644","cover_image_url":"https://img.bookfrontier.com/9781368064644.jpg?v=20260402T191500Z-bisacv2site-fullset%3A2026-04-05T16%3A15%3A58Z","score":12.7706,"title":"Once Upon a K-prom","url":"https://bookfrontier.com/books/9781368064644"},{"authors":["I.
