Geek Girl could be a good read for anyone who has ever felt like they didn't fit in. The book is refreshingly honest in its portrayal of Harriet, a girl who knows a lot about a lot of things but struggles to make friends. The most unique feature of this book is the way it celebrates quirkiness and encourages readers to embrace their own individuality. If you're looking for a fun, feel-good book with a strong message of self-acceptance, then Geek Girl is the perfect choice!
