I really enjoyed Frankly in Love because it wasn't a story so much about the love triangle or the romance - it was a story about Frank and about him being an Asian-American. The story was really heartfelt - the romance was adorable, the friend situation was a great addition, and the family was true to the core. I felt Frank's frustration with his family and the conversations he had with his Asian family, and I felt his high school crush with both Britt and Joy. It had the ups and downs that I look for in books, and a great conclusion to match. While it was extremely cute, I can't say that it was one of my all-time favorites. There was something missing for me in the terms of the oomph factor - there's not much that will stick with me months after reading this.
