Meet Beck. As in Rebecca. She's the good one, the proverbial complete package: the one all the professors like, the one who gets the party invites and keeps people laughing, the one who seems to pull the straight A's out of a magic hat and the one whom friends can count on no matter what. So when she sees Number Six on the football team fumble the ball at a crucial moment during the ultra-crucial Penn-Cornell game, Beck is totally unprepared for the scary downturn her life susequently takes. Number Six's mishap broadsides Beck, filling her with an unfamiliar sense of doubt about the course of her own life. Indulging in her own private odyssey of alcohol and anonymous hook-ups, Beck immerses herself in a frantically paced night life as she searches for connection and self-realisation in an uncertain world, where all bets are off and where the map to happiness seems permanently mislaid.

About this title

Synopsis

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.
