Geek Girl by Holly Smale

Geek Girl
by Holly Smale
(Review by Megan)

BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!!!

Geek Girl was an amazing - and I mean it - story, with the tale of Harriet Manners as she transforms from a geek into a top viewer model.

Harriet Manners is a geek, and her whole school knows it. Being top in everything makes Harriet be teased, treated like dirt and makes her feel like a polar bear lost in a jungle, but one day on a trip to a shopping centre at school, a fashion agent sees Harriet and takes her away for photographs. In the next few weeks she gets transformed into a model, but has to lie to her best friend, Nat, and her stepmum, Annabel to keep everything in place. When they both find out what is going on, Harriet and her dad are chucked away like a bag of garbage, and Harriet still has a job with the modeling agency, but what will she do?

A gripping book from begining to end with a girls first love and troubling events. The book states for 11+, but I'm 10 and I really enjoyed it, but unfortunately there are a few places in the book were the use of bad language is used.
