‘Down and Across’ by Arvin Ahmadi
Teenage fiction. Scott Ferdowski doesn’t know what he wants to do with his life; he can’t commit to anything. But he has a plan: to run away to Washington and talk to a famous college lecturer about grit.
On his travels, he meets Fiora who is into crossword puzzles and causing havoc.
It’s a coming-of-age story that’s pretty good. I liked it.
