A novel by

 
 
Frankie is appalled to hear herself assuring the girls at school that yes she has got a boyfriend. The more fibs she tells, the worse it gets, so she builds herself a robot. The robot is the utterly gorgeous Romeo, and Frankie is the envy of the school. Unfortunately, Romeo has a couple personality flaws: he is completely self-obsessed, and he doesn't understand that there are some things you just don't say. Frankie is hurt and offended when he tells her she's not pretty enough to be his girlfriend, and learns the hard way that "perfect" is not all it's cracked up to be.
