About Freshman Year

This is the first year of college, rendered as 300+ puzzles. Cryptograms, word scrambles, and fill-ins cover dorm life chaos, dining hall disasters, and the questionable wisdom freshmen hand each other at 2am.

It is funny in a way that lands because it is accurate. The jokes come from the shared experience of a first year, which is why it survives the shoebox under the bed.

It slips into a care package better than another box of granola bars. Good as a graduation gift, a move-in day gift, or a first-semester survival kit for college students and teens.
