Book Overview

Three friends, two love stories, one convention: this fun, feminist love letter to geek culture is all about fandom, friendship, and finding the courage to be yourself.

"Full of irreverent humor and in-jokes, it's geeky and funny, with a heavy dose of self-discovery. . . . . Seeing girls and women uplifting, protecting, and loving each other is extremely powerful especially in the context of fandom." --Teen Vogue

"This is the geeky, queer book of our dreams." --Seventeen

Charlie likes to stand out. She's a vlogger and actress promoting her first movie at SupaCon, and this is her chance to show fans she's over her public breakup with co-star Reese Ryan. When internet-famous cool-girl actress Alyssa Huntington arrives as a surprise guest, it seems Charlie's long-time crush on her isn't as one-sided as she thought.

Taylor likes to blend in. Her brain is wired differently, making her fear change. And there's one thing in her life she knows will never change: her friendship with her best guy friend Jamie--no matter how much she may secretly want it to. But when she hears about a fan contest for her favorite fandom, she starts to rethink her rules on playing it safe.

Queens of Geek by Jen Wilde, chosen by readers like you for Macmillan's young adult imprint Swoon Reads, is an empowering novel for anyone who has ever felt that fandom is family.

"This celebration of geek culture and fandom promotes diversity and being true to oneself." --School Library Journal

" A] fun read about fandom, friendship and the courage to be yourself." --Autostraddle

It's fine....

So I won't lie I came because I heard it was gay and was reviewed highly on a blog I like. But this book.... isn't that good. It was clearly written in the 2012 Tumblr height and so the main characters are insufferable and think that liking marvel comics makes them weird or different. Also the beginning is so incredibly slow and I'm not kidding this thing has TWO clothing lists in the first like fifty pages. FOR THE SAME CHARACTER!!!! It's simple and uninspired. Frankly your better off spending your money on something else.
