Description

Tapioca Strangeways is applying to college--more specifically, to the most selective institution in the country, Riddle University. But instead of writing the traditional college essay (their prompt is "So what?"), Tapi proposes to her admissions counselor, Dean Dorman, that she write about herself in the form of ten chapters, "slices off of me ... served ... raw, unsauced, except for parts improved by my imagination." She ruminates in a delightful voice about her early years in the Chicago projects, her mixed ethnic heritage, homeschooling and oboe lessons with her mother, and her unusual athletic prowess. She succeeds in being accepted to Riddle, but not in the way one might imagine. Laid out as a series of letters between Tapi and Dean, wordplay and sexual innuendo become more pronounced as the story progresses.
