 Where was this book when I was 18!? 
 I was in a cheesy mood (blame it on my period), so I decided to listen to the audiobook of Geekerella. A Cinderella story with a geek and an actor as the main characters. 
 Although I liked the geeky references, the familiar struggles getting ready for a con and making your cosplay, hoping the movie will do justice to a series/book, hoping the casting will do your favourite character justice, feeling left out, etc. I liked the poc main character and the references to whitewashing, the lgbtq (side)characters and everything; but overall the book felt too "Tumblr" for me sometimes. In my defense, I loved Tumblr and I was obsessed some years ago, I still live and respect the community, but I feel like I grew out of it. That's why I felt like I would have absolutely loved the book some years ago, but just not now. And it was a little too cheesy for me, especially the ending, but then again, it was a retelling of Cinderella, what did I expect!? 
 I had the feeling this was just the same story as "Billy and me" by Giovanna Fletcher, but with younger main characters (18 and 16/17 yo). I adored Billy and me, but the main characters were more in the same life fase as me. 
 I will definitely recommend the book to the right people, probably to a younger audience.
