Illustrated by
F. Bowman, III Hastie.
African American high-school senior Coretta White hires a white ghostwriter to maintain her blog, Little White Lies, after it becomes a top-trending sensation, then faces public disgrace when she confesses. The ghostwriter's middle-age perspective (in alternating chapters) seems out of place, and the shifting form (texting, G-chat, email, traditional novel) is difficult to follow. Still, this look at internet celebrity has timely appeal.
