A review by carrionlibrarian
The Secret Loves of Geek Girls by Hope Nicholson, Marjorie Liu, Margaret Atwood
3.0
Like most anthologies some big hits ("A First", "Cherry", "Ghost Stories" , "Fanfiction, F/F, Angst") and some big misses (the phoned in Margaret Atwood comics, the molesty muses comic, the woman who dropped out of her PhD to be with a guy. Oof.). Plus some forgettable filler. Though, for the most part, I found the comics more interesting than the prose. I had trouble picking it back up again if I left off with a prose piece as the next instalment.
Lots of Canadian content which is nice. However it meant there were a lot instances where a contributor would drop a name like something or someone was Kind of a Big Deal and my response was "yeah, never heard of you."
On the whole enjoyable. Glad it exists.
