This one was kind of an odd one- I picked it up from the new books section because I like crosswords and I'm a woman so this sounds like it's relevant to my interests, and... kind of. What I wasn't expecting was this to be part-memoir, as Anna Shechtman also muses over her crossword interest with her anorexia, and meta thoughts on being the Perfect Girl intellectually and through self-discipline. As a former gifted kid I can recognize the intellectualism afoot here, and it feels... like a considered look back at who Anna has been interwoven with other feminist crossword constructors and literary folks.
