Number 6 Fumbles

by Rachel Solar Tuttle

Number 6 Fumbles Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

In this powerful novel, an accomplished young woman, suddenly seized by self-doubt, falls headfirst into a fervent exploration of the merits and pitfalls of being good.

Rebecca Lowe is an upbeat coed, the one who gets straight A's, the one friends and teachers count on. But when she sees No. 6 fumble the football at the Penn-Cornell game, Beck begins to question what would happen if she "fumbled the ball" in her own life. Suddenly filled with uncertainty, she begins to devolve, indulging in a personal odyssey of hard drinking and casual hookups, staying out all night as she tries to find the real Rebecca. But somehow the truth keeps evading her.

Gritty and passionate, Number 6 Fumbles is an irresistible story for anyone who has ever feared failure only slightly more than success.

Synopsis:

This is Solar-Tuttle's sharply drawn, dead-on portrait of college life that recounts the alternately comic and poignant efforts of an overachieving young woman on a quest to find herself.
