FROM THE BOOK JACKET:

Geektastic celebrates all things geeky, from Klingons and Jedi Knights to fan fiction, theater geeks, and cosplayers. Whether you’re a former, current, or future geek, or if you just want to get in touch with your inner geek, Geektastic has something for everyone. Get your geek on!

Since I am a huge geek/nerd, I was very drawn to this book. It was my second time reading it, and it seems I’ve become even more of a geek because I understood more of the references. I am not ashamed. 

All of the stories were good in their own way. My favourites were probably by Wendy Mass, M.T. Anderson and Barry Lyga. There were other ones that I really liked as well, such as the stories by David Levithan and Garth Nix. I liked them all though, it was tough to pick favourites. I literally almost typed up all of the authors’ names before I realized I had to delete a few.

This book is definitely a must-read for all geeks.
