The Geek's Guide to Unrequited Love by Sarvenaz Tash

5.0

Let me just it now- this was solid FUN to read. I can honestly say I've never read a Young Adult book where the primary setting is a comic convention, so that made this book such a blast to read! I feel like comic con settings are so very ripe with opportunity for characters and conflict and plot, and that really came through in "Geeks Guide".

This is a relatively short read (about 250 pages) and I flew through it in a day, but enjoyed every moment. Yes, it was kind of cheesy (it's a boy-pursues-girl read) but I thought the relationship felt genuine and progressed in a way I could believe.

Also, I TOTALLY loved the female characters in this book. They each had strong interests, personalities, and voices, and it was very enjoyable reading them.
Again, I personally just had a lot of fun reading this. The writing is solid, nothing spectacular, but the plot and characters truly pulled me in to the story!
