Geek Girl

Those of you who dip your toes into the ocean that is Twitter may have noticed me mentioning a book for silly, soppy girls, called Geek Girl, by Holly Smale. In the interests of full disclosure, I have to say right now that I met Holly at the Harper Collins Summer Party last week and, well... she's kind of besotted with me. It's a thing, it happens, it's perfectly natural, so let's all move past it without making Holly feel at all self-conscious.

Thank you.

I exchanged a few tweets with her a few weeks ago, then visited her twitter page. I figured if she was half as funny in her book as she is on twitter, it'd be a book worth reading. So I bought it, and I've just finished it.

My Review of Geek Girl

Geek Girl is a book about a girl who is a geek. There are no ninjas in it. Virtually no one dies. There are two haircuts (one planned, one not). There are bizarre characters. There is one tremendously awful bully that makes you want to punch the page. There are clothes and shoes.

And DESPITE all the lack of bloodshed... this book is brilliant.

Harriet is 15 years old. She's a geek. She likes facts and figures and doing her homework. She's not exactly popular in school. She's just... weird. Her mind works in unusual ways. When she's plucked from her life and told she's going to be a model she thinks everything is going to get better— she's going to change and suddenly be cool and have friends...

There are lines in this book that will make you laugh out loud. There are jokes. One liners. Gags. Set ups and payoffs. It may deal with popularity (or lack of same), and it may deal with bullying, and insecurity, and it may play with the myth of metamorphosis... but even when Harriet is at her most vulnerable, she is never less than hilarious.

If it helps, you can think of Harriet as the younger sister to Clarabelle, in the Skulduggery books. She is, literally, THAT weird. And THAT loveable.

I would rate this book eight fish out of eight.


But please, let's not mention how much Holly fancies me. It's just... it's embarrassing.

Um, no. Sorry. It don't get rid of him permanently but hopefully it can help lessen the damage. Zaf, how's Javiee

Jophiel said...

*Snickers at Zaffy and nods approval* Well played... *Stops and looks at Niccolò's hands* Did you eat all your marshmallows like I told you to?

Jophiel said...

Niccy, it's because it's funny!!! At my family get together, dad always brings an Esky full if ice and that's what we do for hours!!

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Why would I eat marshmallows?

Thank you for that dedication, but daring is a world I wouldn't use to describe myself... It's more just that once I had stolen the first name, it took over and I ended up stealing many more as a result of my newfound sadistic agenda.

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Niccolo it is a daring thing to have 48 i have Justaria who gives me a headache i couldnt handle 47 more.

As for Javier he's fine from what I gather. I'm not allowed to visit

Jophiel said...

Because I gave you a packet and commanded you to eat them! *Growls in a low tone and stalks off to get more marshmallows for Niccolò*

Jophiel said...

*Returns and thrusts packet if marshmallows into Niccolò's arms* Eat!

Noelle said...

DAMN WEATHER! (Sorry)

*glares a the sky*

What was the damage, Zaf

Jophiel said...

Hehe!! What does a group of crows and your future have in common?

A murder!!

Noelle said...

...what?

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

They..wont te-*goes pale and falls against tree*

A group of crows is called a murder!!!!

Zafira? Are you alright?

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

*stares at everyone in shock* they think the knife Alastair used in him, one of them, is poisoned....it's paralyzed him

Jophiel said...

Talking: Darn I hate Minecraft!!!

*Sprints over and looks at Zaffy* I hope you know that in feeling pretty guilty right now... Perhaps it's the symbol..?

Noelle said...

... I'm sorry, Zaf.

Jophiel said...

*Purses lips and runs back to campfire and takes out notebook, pen and symbol cards* *Starts flipping through and merges selected ones* Hey Nic! You're probably gonna have to stab me with a similar knife if this works!!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

He always wantes a sibling for Alexis...*buries face in hands*

Noelle said...

*looks sternly at Rose*

No. We don't need more people out of the equation, if something goes wrong

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*runs over to Death and pulls notebook from her hands* I don't think we want to risk your safety with any more of those, Death.

Now that I've sorted through the memories... The first knife I used- the one Fabienne melted- was infused with a slow-acting poison. But are you alright, Zafira?

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Continues Adra's sentence* Then there's one less psychopath for you to get rid of. *Smiles*

Niccolò Croatoan said...

If we're worried about the number of psychopaths, I should be the first one to go. No one wants you to play with your life, Death. So stop it.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Grasps air near Niccolò's hands* Gimmie it back!!! I want to help!!! *Rubs over to tree and jumps up onto thin branch that would break with any more weight* *Grabs out spare notebook and draws*

Noelle said...

*retrieves Zaf a cup of water* here, drink this

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Me? Barely Niccolo. Barely. He wanted to have a sibling for Alexis now he can't even do that *is actually crying*

Noelle said...

You won't be much of a help is you're dead or in the hospital, Rose

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*flicks second notebook out of her hands with air* If you want to help, don't make us worry for both of you at once. You needn't rely on symbols for everything.

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

Niccolò, you. Are. Not. A. Psychopath. You are amazing!! And being risky and stupid is in my job description. Think of it like an occupational hazard!

Jophiel said...

*Groans and gives slight smirk to Niccolò* You'll have to tie me up before I stop! * Pulls out knife and starts carving sigil into branch* You'll also have to take all y weapons and sharp pointy things and even my little symbol flash cards!!
Adra, I'll be fine in a hospital! As long as there are no needles....

Noelle said...

Oh god. Rose has a crush on him too. Was Leo not enough?

Jophiel said...

Oh my, that was just to annoy Zaf!! I do it because I'm nice and I've made way too many mistakes!!!

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*glances back at Zafira* Zafira, please try to calm down. I might be able to reverse it, if I can manage to find- or recreate- a few herbs that are now extinct. I can't make any promises, but at least there's a possibility. Can no one at the Sanctuary come up with a solution?

Death, if you keep this up, I'll have to hinder your ability to move again.

Jophiel said...

You know I could just glare at myself and be able to move again, right? *Sighs and smiles at sigil* Now it the mathematical part... Finding lengths and widths and depths... *Sighs irritably*

Noelle said...

And she ignores me...way to confirm it.

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Then just try to stay calm. The procedure they're working on may very well work out in your favor. But if I may ask- merely out of curiosity- he did attack you, did he not? So why are you so concerned for his welfare?

Talking: I hope you enjoy it, Maralie- though it seems almost an impossibility for you not to do so.

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Because he is my husband Coco. I can't be mad at him forever....Can i train with you?

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*sighs* *begins to concentrate, and Death's vision starts fading to black*

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

*leans back, deep in thought*

Niccolo, how much time do you wager we have? Until Alastair comes back

Jophiel said...

*Blinks against the darkness* Heeey... Not cool... *Falls off high branch*

Jophiel said...

Talking: Gooooooodbye Thursday!!!

Niccolò Croatoan said...

I'm not planning on becoming that sadistic again at all. I might if I were to try to fall asleep, I certainly would if I let my guard down. And I'm afraid it will happen every time I am forced to relive that one moment with all of my senses. But I am planning on none of the aforementioned scenarios, so we should have an abundance of time.

#ChaseForBook9

Niccolò Croatoan said...

*catches Death and sets on ground, still blackening vision*

#ChaseForBook9

Jophiel said...

*Moans and curses Niccolò* ... I hate you... *Vision goes black*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

You know I need to kick the crap out of Alastair! Remember how you gave me nightmares Niccolo? Well I got them cured then Alastair puts me in his head and guess what came back? The bloody nightmares of what you did to me in my own home.

Noelle said...

So... If we blocked the memory instead?

Niccolò Croatoan said...

You'd have to block it 49 times. But even if we sealed that off, the next worst memory would also involve that part of myself. I have no negative memories to speak of before I stole my second name. But I daresay Javier will have learned well enough not to try that with me again.

Yes- I knew those memories had hurt you, so I targeted them specifically. I regret that more than I can say. I can block them out again, but that still isn't worth much.

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

There must be something we can do, though! You know him better than any of us!

Jophiel said...

*Faces softens and loses all defensiveness*

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

It isn't exactly fun to wake up st 3am from nightmares *hugs knees to chest* Adra Alastair is a true name I know what Niccolo is feeling you can't block Alastair completely. Probably one thing in common I have with Niccolo is knowing my true name.

Niccolò Croatoan said...

The best defense any of you could use against me when I'm like that is to simply not react to anything that I do. Which will be difficult, because once I realize you're doing it I'll take it as a challenge and try harder. But if I can't get any of you to react the way I'd like, I'll leave to torture someone else. Which admittedly isn't much better, but none of you will be dead.

If I could think of a way to hold myself back, I would not have lived the way that I did for 500 years.

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Niccolo if it means tiring you out i'm sure we could handle being tortured. Just saying. And Javier, i've been told, keeps murmuring in his sleep that he's sorry

Noelle said...

...okay...


(I gtg, boarding again!) bb in an hr

Niccolò Croatoan said...

Talking: Goodbye, Adra. I'll probably leave soon as well, to return around 1:30, Aretha's time.

#ChaseForBook9

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Then I won't see you until later like between 5-7 because once again i gtg for another appointment *sighs* we can train later if you want Coco

Jophiel said...

Talking: And in probably going to fall asleep soon... I hate time...

Jophiel said...

Talking: Actually, I think I'll go to sleep now seeing as nothing interesting is happening! Night- er... Morning everyone!!! Wow... Early night!!

Zanida Laufeydottir Queen of Asgard (Zafira Kerias) said...

Talking: night Aussie! Im watching HP1

Jophiel said...

Two quotes for you all and someone make sure Niccy sees this;

I can't promise to fix all your problems,
but I can promise you won't have to face them alone

And

Sometimes you just want to put other peoples happiness before yours:
because you love them, because they deserve it.
Sometimes you want to go out of your way for people just
because you know it's important that they get a chance to smile once in a while

Star Inkbright said...

Nope, not outside. I'd hear them qnd it's not sunny. We only go in the garden when our mum tells us to, and she only tells us to when it's a lovely day . . . *pops and checks* Nope.

Shopping? Our village shop is ridiculously overpriced so we only pop there when we're out of something and nwed it right now or when we need eggs, coz they have real nuce eggs, plus it's a village shop and hardly a supermarket. Yoy don't 'go shopping' there and to go anywhere else, the car would be taken, except MAYBE the co-op in the next village . . . *muses* POSSIBILITY. :)
There's probably at an event at the school or something, but I'm sure they would have told me . . . *frowns*

Or maybe they spontaneously decided to go to someone's house . . .
BIG POSSIBILITY! :)
But all my mum's friends are the parents of my brother's friends (because she was waiting in his playground and blah when we moved here. At our old house her friends were ny friends' parents), so you'd've thought my sister would've walked home . . .
Unless they went to ----'s, which would be very unusual but could happen . . . ---- is my sister's friend and my mum knowa her parents.

I DO NOT KNOW.

I'm less worried and more puzzled, but I made bread today (Acticities week) and I want people to eat it, so. :P

But if there was an accident, I'm pretty sure I'd be phoned and told anyway, so yeah. :)
Unless everyone died so no one can phone . . .

Don't but stupid, Star. *scowls*

This is what my brain does. :P

However, it can be a good thing. Because I've irrationally thought I was dying multiple times in my life, I now know how it feels to know you've about to die, so I can write about it fairly accurately. :)

Star, I'm not sure what's happening. I think we might be going to play Blogland Truth or Dare, not sure. It's mostly chaos.

But Ieni, I can't hug people with only one arm! D:

[hugs everyone to demonstrate this]

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...

How are you?:)

Omg, Luce, how long is your thing going to be?! I'm glad it's going well, though:)

Star, SOON I SHALL INVESTIGATE YOUR PLAYLISTS!

Bye, Trip!:( *hugs*

But, Fabi why would you want NORMAL hugs all the time? I could give out ninjaeroplanetacklehugs for free for you!

#ChaseForBook9

Luciana said...

It'll be around 100k words, I should think. c:

Give or take, obviously.

Got about 9 more chapters to write, once I've finished this one. :3

#ChaseForBook9

Noelle said...
