In "My Latest Grievance," we meet the Hatch family, professors Aviva and David, and their 16-year-old daughter Frederica. Frederica was born and raised in a dormitory on the campus of the all-girls college, Dewing College. She's feeling a bit stagnant with her life and then enters the new houseparent, Laura lee who is also her Dad's ex-wife.  She is instantly curious about her and actively seeks her out.  She begins to spend time with her and enjoys Laura's carefree style.  That is until she sees the consequences of Laura Lee's ways.

When I started this book, I did not realize it was a re-release of a 2007 novel. I found it to be a bit slow in some parts and overly dramatic in others.  Frederica was a likeable character but I thought all the adults were a bit much.  I did not enjoy the way the book ended too easily. Overall, I thought it was a good coming of age story with enjoyable Lipman humor.
