"Two Across"


Just a darn good read. I was looking for something a little bit different, and this was it. It's a story about two high school brains who meet at a spelling bee. The two of them end up tying, for the first time in the contest's history. It follows them in their lives, both together, and on their own. Vera, a mathematical genius decides to pursue an education while Stanley decides a life of deception is the right way to go for him. I thought the book was very well written and was refreshingly unpredictable. The only qualms I have about the book is the ending.While satisfactory, I found it to be a bit rushed. As if the author decided, enough is enough, time to wrap things up! Still, a very enjoyable read.
