    About this audiobook

    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 novel, debut author David Yoon takes on the question of who am I? with a result that is humorous, heartfelt, and ultimately unforgettable.

      Frankly in Love is extremely relatable! I couldn't put this book down. I have to admit that I found Frank a little annoying in the beginning but he's just an 18-year old kid and there's so much growth in this book and so much more sadness than I expected. As a reader, I was able to understand the choices that the author took and it was beyond amazing. I definitely recommend this book. The narration was amazing as well.

      2.5 Brit deserved better. Also f#%^€ the racists.... AND the fake dating wasn’t what I was expecting AT ALL.

      This was cute and touching. Seeing how a family can affect your whole life and also that your parents may bare lot of things and hide them from you for your happiness.
      The audio was perfect, how the guy made the English- korean accent is just amazing

      Had some funny parts, voice of person reading was quality, personally had a bunch of issues with it, also, once you know the premise it’s *kinda* predictable. Overall, 2.25⭐️
