Geek High
4 primary works
Book 1
At this school, everyone's a geek. And Miranda Bloom still can't fit in...
Miranda is a math genius with divorced parents, an evil stepmother, and no boyfriend in sight. She can't even fit in with the other geeks at the Nottingham Independent School for high-IQ students, because they actually have useful talents. Miranda, on the other hand, is known as "The Human Calculator," which doesn't amount to much when people have, you know, their own calculators.
Then Miranda gets stuck planning the school's Snowflake Gala. And as she struggles to find a date and drum up some school spirit at Nottingham-aka "Geek High"-she finds that who you are means more than where you fit in.

Book 2
The Girl Genius is back and life has never been better! I, Miranda Bloom, finally have an almost-quasi-boyfriend, Dex McConnell, the lacrosse star of Orange Cove High. But when holiday break rolls around, and I jet off to visit my mother in London, Dex suddenly seems to lose all interest in me. Then there's Henry, the very cute and very available British guy, who complicates matters even more by making it clear that he's very interested in me.
Things don't get any easier when classes start back up at Geek High. Between the dreaded math team competitions, an annoyingly love-struck best friend and a step-mother who seems to delight in making me miserable, it doesn't take a genius to see that the semester ahead is going to be tough.

Book 3
The third compulsively readable book in the smart and witty series about a high school for gifted students.
Miranda Bloom has scored an adorable, lacrosse-playing boyfriend, Dex McConnell, and an awesomely easy summer job looking after a ten year old mini-genius, Amelia. This summer is going to be sweet...
Then reality puts the brakes on everything. Though Dex and Miranda are official, she feels like he's keeping secrets-secrets that may have to do with his fashion model ex-girlfriend. Meanwhile, Amelia is harder to figure out than advanced trigonometry. How can they bond if all she does is practice the piano? Plus Miranda's mom just invited her to live in London with her. Living across the pond would be great, but can she really leave Geek High and Dex?

Book 4
Some people have to learn the hard way-don't mess with a geek.
Miranda Bloom, girl genius, is totally psyched to start her junior year at Geek High. Too bad her boyfriend, lacrosse player Dex McConnell, is off to boarding school in Maine. Miranda thought she could count on her best friends, Finn and Charlie, to cheer her up, but they're caught up in their own issues...
So Miranda decides to make friends with the shy new student Nora Lee. At first things with Nora are great, but soon it seems like Nora thinks that anything Miranda can do, she can do better. Surviving at Geek High is hard enough without a copycat on your tail, and Miranda's not about to let some imitation artist take her place.
