Overview
Geek Girl is coming to America! The internationally bestselling series, perfect for fans of Morgan Matson and Julie Buxbaum, takes on the Big Apple in this third hilarious, high-fashion adventure. When Harriet's dad gets a job in New York City, Harriet is beyond excited to move to the land of skyscrapers, museums, and taxicabs--especially since she'll get to see her dreamy supermodel boyfriend, Nick. Except . . . when her parents said New York, they meant a tiny, boring town two hours from the city by train. Diving back into modeling should be just the right distraction. But can a geek girl stand out in the fashion capital of America? A Quirky Heroine: Harriet Manners is a geek armed with random facts, a history of awkward moments, and a brand-new modeling career. A Supermodel Boyfriend: Her boyfriend Nick is waiting in the big city, but living two hours away by train puts their picture-perfect romance to the test. Small Town, Big City Dreams: Instead of a glamorous Manhattan life, Harriet is stuck in a sleepy town where the only excitement is the train to New York. A Hilarious Friendship Story: As her best friend Nat starts a new life at college back home, Harriet has to navigate high fashion and high school drama all on her own.

Author Information
Holly Smale was unexpectedly spotted by a top London modeling agency at the age of fifteen and spent the following two years falling over on catwalks, going bright red, and breaking things she couldn't afford to replace. By the time she had graduated from Bristol University with a BA in English Literature and an MA in Shakespeare, she had given up modeling and set herself on the path to becoming a full-time writer. Geek Girl was the #1 bestselling young adult fiction title in the UK in 2013. It was shortlisted for several major awards, including the Roald Dahl Funny Prize. Holly currently lives in London, England.
