Review

Geek girl is a story about a 15-year girl named Harriet that is a geek- well she thinks she’s a geek and so do some of her classmates. One girl in particular makes Harriet’s life miserable.

So, when she gets offered the chance to be a model, something she never thought she’d do in a million years, she decides to go for it because maybe, just maybe, she can get rid of her geek image.

This story is told through Harriet’s eyes. She is funny and makes some of the worst decisions you can possibly imagine-you just won’t believe it. I loved that her dad is a bit of an airhead and her step mom is the grounded one. This book will appeal to readers that like stories about fashion, modeling and/or friendship

Overall Book Score: good
