Farrah "Digit" Higgins may be going to MIT in the fall, but this L.A. high school genius has left her geek self behind in another school district so she can blend in with the popular crowd at Santa Monica High and actually enjoy her senior year. But when Farrah, the daughter of a UCLA math professor, unknowingly cracks a terrorist group's number sequence, her laid-back senior year gets a lot more interesting. Soon she is personally investigating the case, on the run from terrorists, and faking her own kidnapping-- all while trying to convince a young, hot FBI agent to take her seriously. So much for blending in . . .

A Girl Named Digit

After identifying a terrorist plot, a brilliant seventeen-year-old girl from Santa Monica, California, gets involved with the young FBI agent who is trying to ensure her safety.

           ok listen i actually appreciate this book for brought me some laughters. it was a really fun, quick read.

HOWEVER as the story goes, there are stuffs that i found... what. 

i can push aside all the way-too-easy, impossible scenes of defeating terrorists. that's fine, this book isn't meant to be so serious so i can understand.

but the whole adult-minor thing??? i actually rooted for John! when he told Digit that "it's wrong because you're seventeen and I'm an adult", i praised him. yes, feelings aren't for us to control but our actions are. THEN HE DID ALL THAT??? THOUGH HE KNOW IT'S WRONG???? and him saying "I will wait until you're eighteen" is so :/

and their parents too wtf? wtf??? (except for John's mother who actually has brain)

yeah anyway. this book was a whack in the end.

Farrah Higgins has been known as Digit for most of her life due to her extraordinary ability with numbers, puzzles, and codes. Moving to a new school has given her the opportunity to hide her abilities in order to appear "normal," but one night when watching one of her friends' favorite teen shows on television, she notices a group of numbers in the corner of the screen. She is fascinated when different numbers appear for the next three weeks, but when she begins to figure out the meaning of those numbers and realizes that they point to a terrorist attack that occurred at JFK Airport, she has to find someone who will listen to her theory. After several failed attempts, she finally gets an FBI agent to listen to her, which leads to a fast-paced chase that takes her from California to New York and back again.
Digit uses sarcasm and a natural sense of humor that make her many quirks hard not to like. When she meets John, the young FBI agent that believes her story, the action, adventure, and romance amp up pretty quickly. Overall, a quick enjoyable young adult read.
