Dylan Shoenfield is the princess of L.A.'s posh Castle Heights High. She has the coolest boyfriend, the most popular friends, and a brand-new "it" bag that everyone covets. But when she accidentally tosses her bag into a fountain, this princess comes face-to-face with her own personal frog: selfprofessed film geek Josh Rosen. In return for rescuing Dylan's bag, Josh convinces Dylan to let him film her for his documentary on high school popularity. Reluctantly, Dylan lets F-list Josh into her A-list world, and is shocked to realize that sometimes nerds can be pretty cool. But when Dylan's so-called prince charming of a boyfriend dumps her flat, her life and her social status comes to a crashing halt. Can Dylan with Josh's help pull the pieces together to create her own happily-ever-after?
Omigod! – I am never a popular girl. But this book made me realize of things multiply to
hundred! Now I sound like Dylan. Well, it’s brilliant I gave it a try and totally
was worth it!
Dylan Schoenfield and Josh Rosen are the main characters that
gave Palmer’s book a life. Dylan was—note
the past tense, please—the Castle Heights High most popular girl. She was
regarded with great favour, approval, and affection by everyone especially that
she had the coolest boyfriend, the most popular friends, and the “It” trendy
accessories everyone envies. Josh was the opposite sex of opposite status of
Dylan, in which, he was described as “geek”. He is a film eccentric where
practically everything he talks about and relates about is classic films,
award-winning directors and famous actors and actresses.
Of course, it’s not complete without friends. The other characters of Geek Charming are well-round written.
They do not ruin the main personas but gave more feelings.
Who else here reads the book’s back cover just after they
have read what’s inside? Me! Me! Me! I just realized (Just after reading Geek Charming) that I am doing that
every time I finish a book. I admit it. I do not care a lot of the synopsis and
blurbs of the books I pick at the bookstore. What I care for is what’s inside.
I flip the pages to its first chapter and read. When it triggers me, then . . .
Really, the books you read brings you to the world you are
not in. Geek Charming is enlightening. It gives us [readers] a big heart.
Humorous and outstanding for me! Recommending Robin Palmer’s to those who
suffer on malady, to those who think they are on the F-list, to those who never
went out of their curtains, and to those who never really know themselves.
