(2) YA Australian teen Alex obsesses about the upcoming notification of whether he'll be accepted at university. Then he meets a girl, and his whole summer--as well as his way of thinking about himself and his future--changes. Alex's self-deprecating, low-key humor wends through his leisurely narrative as he gets to know Fortuna, whose hippie family at first seems exotic to him.
