1.5 stars. I wanted to like Disreputable History. I wanted to love it. Unfortunately, it REALLY did not work for me. Frankie is supposed to be this feminist badass, but everything she does is just to be closer to her boyfriend, to not lose him to his boys, and I'm just -_- about that. I love CW shows, but to me, E. Lockhart's books are nothing more than the worst parts of those shows. Pretty white kids with pretty problems. There is absolutely NO depth. I am fascinated by the relationship Frankie and Alpha have, but Lockhart completely passed it over. Porter is supposed to play a big role based on the jacket copy, but we only find out what he's done at the end of the book when he TELLS Frankie. Telling instead of showing is lazy. Plus, nothing even happens until page 250 or so. Literally the last fourth of the book has all the action, and that is really shoddy storytelling. The only thing I really liked about this book was Frankie, but her inconsistencies were frustrating. 
 After giving up on We Were Liars and now the disappointment I have with Disreputable History, I think it's time to admit E. Lockhart is not for me. I've always wanted to read the Ruby Oliver books, but if I'm having so many frustrations with the others, I think I should just let them go.
