Queens of Geek (Swoon Novels)

by Jen Wilde

Well, that totally hit the spot. I was looking for something cute and fun, but still with some depth, and I found it in Queens of Geek.

I am always up for going to a convention, and I had a great time at SupaCon. We went to same panels, made some friends, entered a contest, attended a gala, and even did a zombie run. Wilde did a fabulous job immersing me not only in the action of the con, but also the culture of the con. There were a few fangirl moments, that I definitely got carried into and there was also a great fandom vibe throughout.

This may have been set at a convention, but it was the friendship between Charlie, Taylor, and Jamie that took center stage. I love when an author creates a great friendship dynamic, and Wilde did it so well, she had me aching to be part of this group. They listened to each other, gave their time to each other, and were great sources of support throughout.

There were also two romances, and they were both so adorable. I was shipping both couples hard, and I adored watching both these love stories unfold. There were so many examples of how healthy these relationships were too, and by featuring Charlie's ex, I really got to see the difference between a good and a bad romance.

Yes, lots of fun, friendship, and romance, but there were also a ton of other ideas. One that stood out the most, was about being true to yourself and not letting others dictate your happiness. That will always be a wonderful message, and I liked getting to see how both Taylor and Charlie dealt with these bouts of self-doubt, and found the courage to be happy on their own terms.

I have to say, I wouldn't mind catching up with this group, when they they make their move to LA, because I found them utterly enchanting, and want them to have the best futures possible.
