What is The Hustle Files?

The Hustle Files is a story first--secretly vocab-powered for teens to level up their vocabulary while having a blast.

Packed with 900+ bolded ACT/SAT words, it blends plot twists, slangy dialogue, and ridiculous choices where you run the show.

With 28 endings, a point system, and zero boring definitions, it’s test prep in disguise: clever, casual, and totally non-cringe.

Perfect for classroom libraries, youth programs, or any teen who’s too cool for flashcards — but still wants to win at life.

Reviews

But also... I remember what 'egregious' means now.”
