Publisher's Summary

Geek, Actually is a sexy, geeky contemporary women's fiction series that follows the lives of five diverse, nerdy women as they navigate work, love, life, and the internet. For fans who love Sex and the City as well as Star Wars, for anyone who knows that sci-fi can be sultry and that "gamer" is not gender specific - this serial will turn you on, rile you up, and leave you with five new friends.

Meet your new best girlfriends. Michelle is a hard-nosed fantasy and sci-fi editor used to things going her way. Taneesha is a talented video game programmer used to being the odd (wo)man out. Aditi is a fantasy writer on the verge of her big break. Christina is a rebel on the sidelines of Hollywood. And Elli is a fan-of anything and everything that keeps her from "proper adulting." Together they are Rebel Scum (at least in their shared group chat), and best friends through thick and thin. They might live far apart but through the power of the internet and a shared love of all things geek, they are ready to face the world together.

Originally presented in serial form by Serial Box Publishing, Geek Actually is brought to you by Cathy Yardley, Melissa Blue, Rachel Stuhler, and Cecilia Tan.

Critic Reviews

"Geek Actually reads like a loving tribute to the women in those spaces who are occupying it by people who have been steeped in the culture for a long time." (The Mary Sue)

"The focus on powerful and healthy female friendships... is a delight, and the diversity of the cast is both wonderful and unsurprising, given the writing team behind this serial: Fandom Hearts series author Cathy Yardley, Dirty Sexy Geeky author Melissa Blue, Cecilia Tan of the Vanished Chronicles, and TV-writer come novelist Rachel Stuhler (Absolutely True Lies)." (Den of Geek)

thumbs down

this book was cringeworthy for all the dramatic and sex scenes and what the point of book being like a script for a tv show. I put this book on to help me sleep. Wrong move because it play out in my dreams.

It’s All Geek To Me

Five sexy and geeky gorgeous women are forever friends who share their lives and passions long distance. As they suffer through hardships and striving for the successes of their dreams they argue, laugh, fight and bond over their shared experiences in the sexist world and work environments. Funny, poignant and quirky characters and life moments that depict the struggle of women in today’s political, sexist environment. A marvelous depiction of friendship between lesbians, sisters, bosses and women of color finding the love and success they strive to achieve. Great performance and wonderfully written. Recommend.
