I had a lot of fun with this one. 
 There were geek references aplenty - I'd gotten Firefly, ThinkGeek & Buffy's "Once More With Feeling" by the time I got to the 20% mark. Ree is snarky but loveable. Involves magic users who gain power from genre movies, games, comics, books & toys. There is a string of teen suicides, an underground magical community, and lots of action. 
 Geekomancy is quirky. Sometimes its a fine line between quirky and whackadoo, but I don't think it ever got absurd. The magic system made a lot of sense. There was learning, limits and consequences. Different people have different strengths. 
 No romance. 
 I can't say I was surprised by the reveals, but that wasn't a problem for me. There were a couple of things that seemed too glossed over - things I can't specify without humongous spoilers, but I had such a good time reading it that they didn't bother me. Of course, the next book will have to address this, but it looks like the author is headed that way in the end. 
 I'll be looking for the next book.
