I. C. AllThe plot seems Kormanish enough, but it's also extremely similar to Schooled (which is one of your best known books). You've never mentioned it on your website, but there's a Goodreads page for it. (Anyone can make a phony web page, though.) It's also listed on your Wikipedia article, using that Goodreads page as a source. And there's a cover, which might be fake.

C. All. If you think any of the information is fake because of it on goodreads, then it’s not a fake webpage. (I like the reference though) A few weeks ago I was on my kindle and since I read a lot of GK books, there was a recommendation for old school to look at the cover. I was also able to see the synopsis. If it was fake, I highly doubt there would be a kindle page for it. Also he actually talks about the book a lot on here, the forum. It really does seem similar to schooled, but it still seems different. I bet it has the same old Korman twists. I also like faker a lot and the references you made were really cool. However, I have 100% trust in the Old School info we do have.
With best regards, Logan
