The Genius Code

In a hyper-competitive academic world where grades are power and knowledge is currency, a misunderstood underdog rises from the bottom with a secret edge—and everyone assumes she’s a genius. Armed with unorthodox methods and relentless grit, she climbs from obscurity to campus legend, navigating cutthroat rivalries, elite factions, and high-stakes contests. Misread as a prodigy, her every win fuels wilder rumors while real dangers close in. Along the way, unexpected allies, simmering romance, and hidden truths challenge everything she thought about herself—and the system rigged against her. A smart, fast-paced blend of academic ambition, social strategy, and emotional growth, perfect for readers who love underdog triumphs with heart and brains.
