What I liked
I loved how it incorporated geeky stuff and fandoms into the story. I have to admit that after the disappointment that was Internet Famous that I was relieved that Gekerella pulled the whole nerd culture thing flawlessly. I have to be honest I also really liked the cover. It makes the story vibe too. It is just the right amount of issues every teen faces and especially nerdy teens and fluff. I have to admit that I was getting burned out on the self-help and serious non-fiction. And I also didn't want something that taxed my brain to read it like literary fiction. I wanted a fun somewhat fluffy read, and that is what I got.
The romance in this was fun to read about. I was waiting until they figured out that the "perfect" person they were texting was each other. I kept waiting for them to find out. And they did sorta. I really hope there is a book two coming soon cause I could not get enough of this world.
The whole time I thought that Starfield was a play on Star Trek, but I never found out if it was or not. And lest you think this is just some fanfiction sorta thing like Shades of Grey to be wrong. This book is very well written unlike some fanfiction out there. That was my one fear going into this book is that it would be all cheesy and over the top, but it wasn't. It was more like a love letter to all the geeks out there who don't fit in anywhere else.
What I did not like
I loved everything about this book! This book is a contender for a top ten book in December.
If you even slightly bit of a geek you will want to read this book. This is a fun, quick read. I LOVED the narrator on the audiobook. I thought it was well done a truly brought the characters to life. I would recommend you go with the audio on this one!
