Going Geek by Charlotte Huang5/24/2023 Like, WTF is that concept, even? I can tell you who's interested in and passionate about stuff I think is fascinating, I guess? How's that? I remember a friend asking me shortly after we'd started at different colleges "So who's cool?" and meaning it in exactly that high school way of hot and popular and influential and whatever, and me thinking that it was such an absurd question to be asking. I was trying to figure out what it is I liked so much about this book, and I realized it's that this is the kind of character arc I always wished was impressed as a great one IRL. Stepping out of her comfort zone never felt so scary-or necessary. And when it turns out that Skylar’s best friend is the one responsible for having her booted from Lincoln? It’s an all-out war. Worse is that Skylar wasn’t exactly truthful about how she spent summer break in Los Angeles-and her little white lie is causing her once rock-solid romance to crumble fast. Living with a group of strangers everyone thinks is lame is bad enough. To her dismay, Skylar’s not going to rule senior year because she’s stuck in Abbot House, a tiny dorm known for, well, nothing. Skylar Hoffman’s senior year at her preppy East Coast boarding school should have been perfect: A girl forced out of her comfort zone finds that being true to herself is the best way to live her life, in this second novel from the author of For the Record.
