Geek Girl

Geek Girl by Holly Smale. 



Geek Girl is an incredible book about 15 year old geek, Harriet Manners, and how she goes from geek to something slightly different. Harriet is not like the other girls at school. She isn’t cool and trendy, doesn't like fashion and gets bullied a lot. Her best friend, Nat, loves fashion and has wanted to be a model since she was 7. Harriet but when Harriet gets offered to be a model hoe will Nat react this is her dream and her friend who is a geek just get offered it. How is that fair? Will Harriet accept this life changing offer? 

This is Holly Smales debut novel and is an incredible book and there is a total of six books in the series. I would recommend this book to teenage girls. Geek Girl has 12545 ratings and 1805 reviews. 

Harriet is the type of person you can't help but love. 
The book takes place at school and at the modelling agency. Holly Smale describes everything really well so it makes you feel like you are there in the story.

This story is defiantly relatable a teenage geek who can’t relate to that everyone knows someone or is a person just like Harriet Manners. 

The novel is partially based on Smale's own experiences as a teenage model. It won the Waterstones Children's Book Prize Teen category prize in 2014 along with the Leeds Book Award for 2014
