“My name is Harriet Manners, and I’ll always be a geek.” It’s the one thing Harriet has always known, but when she has to move to New York, she starts to think that maybe she could be more than just a geek. Suddenly she’s on the other side of the world, she isn’t talking to her friends, she has to try and build a brand (according to her new model-stylist friend Kenderall) and someone other than her boyfriend is making advances on her.
As always, I loved this book. It was just as funny as all the other books in the series and had me completely gripped. The characters were just as loveable as always, although I felt we didn’t see as much as I would have liked of the original characters- Richard, Annabel, and Wilbur- the new characters weren’t nearly as likable. I found many of the turns the book took very predictable, possibly because I’ve read it before, but I loved it nonetheless. The writing style makes it easily enjoyable and a very quick read.

Cute and quick little story. It was quite predictable and nothing special but still worth the read, I think. In my opinion the book felt more of a middle grade than a young adult.

So, it turns out this wasn’t the finale of the trilogy like I had thought it would be. In fact, I can’t see an end in sight. With little of an overarching plot, Harriet’s modelling/teen drama adventures could continue on for many books to come. At least I can say they’re fun—fluff, but fun. Some of Harriet’s antics did irritate me this time, but I still didn’t want to stop reading. I think I’m hooked. Books two and three haven’t been as funny, though. The burst-out-in-fits-of-laughter humour seems to have been tamed down in favour of focusing on Harriet’s love life. And while I missed that, honestly, it was about time we got to see why Harriet liked this boy so much.
