Obviously, popularity isn¿t all that it¿s cracked to be, but then again, maybe their friendship isn¿t either. Two months until high school graduation, and class Salutatorian (AND die-hard geek) Tab Holmes has decided that she wants to be popular, sexy, and irresistible to boys. EVEN if it means failing that last semester. EVEN if her longtime (and equally awkward) pen pal/ kind-of boyfriend is finally coming to Golden Rock High as an exchange student. Enter Camille. She cheats, she lies, she dates college men¿¿.and she¿s Tab¿s new edgy alter ego. Epic NO-NO for a devout Nerd Circle geek! They don¿t: a) talk to boys, b) `do¿ their hair, or c) socialize with anyone even remotely popular. They also definitely don¿t start skipping classes, sneaking out with grown men at night, or lose the second-most coveted position in the graduating class¿ Since true nerds stick together, her BFFs realize that they have to snap some sense into her.¿.that is, until Kaitlyn realizes that it¿s a perfect time to steal Geek-Boy from under Tab¿s nose, and Olivia begins to hide the fact that Kaitlyn¿s gorgeous brother suddenly has a thing for her.
It’s timid Olivia, cynical Kaitlyn, and bold Tabitha ….. oops, Lydie, Kaori, and the gorgeous Camille, of course, back again. Strolling on the other side certainly has its consequences. Clearly, popularity isn’t all that it’s cracked to be, and Lydie was right: the alter egos are bad, bad, BAD! Especially since Kaori is falling in love….. with Camille’s boyfriend, and Camille herself is too busy to notice; she isn’t finished sneaking around with the other guy, the COLLEGE guy, the same one her mother disapproves of. And sweet, innocent, responsible Lydie? Well, she may be hiding the biggest secret of them all. ......Apparently, it’s pretty easy for a Geek to graduate to a Diva….that is, under the right circumstances.
Bargaining her soul had literally cost her .... her life. Sionne as Taryn…. Taryn living through Sionne….throw in a hot demon and a cute human guy, and a girl (dead or not) could kinda get used to it. However….. will Sionne ever figure out which of her friends did her in? And turn them over Tevit for justice, forfeiting her own chance to be human again? Or will she find the love that she needs in time? And what the HELL is up with Taryn’s weird friends?
An Everwitch is born when an angel and a demon die on the same day. When all goes as it should, their life energy passes through the ley between the mortal world and the ether. But….if a human is caught in the crosshairs of that ley, he or she is consumed by that energy and thus becomes Eternal.….a danger to both celestial and netherworld beings….When Brielle makes a quick trip out of town for a family emergency, she gets caught in the crosshairs of an on-going battle between the Angels of Divine and the Demons of Nether. As a newly-made EverWitch, she is given abilities beyond her wildest dreams .... but for a cost. Both the Heaven and Hell worlds are dying, and both sides want Brielle give up her freedom and join the fight to save their world. But with the Angels just as terrifying as the demons, she isn't about to join either side. Her only bargaining chip seems to be a magical grimoire that has somehow become a part of her body.The only thing is …. the last person to carry that book ended up dead....
Bargaining her soul had literally cost her .... her life. Sionne Webster comes to in a new body, that of a recent suicide: an unpopular, mousy girl. She’s got no clue who this chick was, or why her body was chosen for Sionne’s Earth resurrection. What Sionne does know is that she’s only got a few days to find her own murderer before the demon master, Tevit, whisks her back to Hell, hopefully with a killer in tow. Until she discovers that her unknown body donor IS her murderer. Unknown to the demon, Sionne has no intention of returning to the fiery pits, not when all she needs is a human guy to fall in love with her. Luckily, something has delayed Tevit, but any day now, he will seize the body, no questions asked, and toss it to River Styxx with her trapped inside. A slight problem... Now Sionne will do anything to keep from going back to Hell, even depend on the hot, sexy chaos demon that she had to ... get closer to... as a part of the resurrection ritual. The clock is ticking...
Geek Heroines not only tells the stories of fictional and real women, but also explores how they represent changes in societal views of women, including women of color and the LGBTQ community. Geek culture stems from science and technology and so is frequently associated with science fiction. In the beginnings of science fiction, the genre was tied to "magic" and dystopic outcomes; however, as technology turned "geek" into "chic," geek culture extended to include comics, video games, board games, movie, books, and television. Geek culture now revolves around fictional characters about whom people are passionate. Geek Heroines seeks to encourage women and young girls in pursuing their passions by providing them with female role models in the form of diverse heroines within geek culture. Carefully curated to incorporate LGBTQ+ identities as well as racial diversity, the book defines geek culture, explains geek culture's sometimes problematic nature, and provides detailed fiction and nonfiction biographies that highlight women in this area. Entries include writers and directors as well as characters from comic books, science fiction, speculative fiction, television, movies, and video games.
Geeks, hackers and gamers share a common ‘geek culture’, whose members are defined and define themselves mainly in terms of technology and rationality. The members of geek culture produce and circulate stories to express who they are and to explain and justify what they do. Geek storytelling draws on plots and themes from the wider social and cultural context in which geeks live. The author surveys many stories of heated exchanges and techno-tribal conflicts that date back to the earliest days of personal computing, which construct the “self” and the “enemy”, and express and debate a range of political positions. Geek and Hacker Stories will be of interest to students of digital social science and media studies. Both geeky and non-technical readers will find something of value in this account.

A Geek in Thailand is a light-hearted but perceptive look at one of the world's most visited countries from the viewpoint of a young foreign resident. More than just a Thai travel guide, it offers a concise but insightful take on Thailand for tourists, expats, would-be expats, and others--anyone, in fact, with interest in visiting or learning about the Land of Smiles. Packed with short articles accompanied by sidebar stories and interviews and evocative color photographs, the author paints a vivid and revealing picture of a country built on a deep reverence for nation, religion and monarchy, yet with its own distinct, individualistic perspective. Subjects range from the touchstones of Thai culture and history, such as its politics and economy, Buddhism and folklore, to chapters on traditional Thai design and craftsmanship, including its highly acclaimed architecture and fine silk textiles. There are also chapters on the globally popular Thai food and entertainment like kickboxing and cabaret. Chapters on the Thai character and cultural do's and don'ts will allow the reader to go beyond the Thai smile. For visitors to the country, the author includes his top ten things to see and do in the main tourist destinations as well as an account of the main festivals and tips on getting around.
This book examines changing representations of masculinity in geek media, during a time of transition in which “geek” has not only gone mainstream but also become a more contested space than ever, with continual clashes such as Gamergate, the Rabid and Sad Puppies’ attacks on the Hugo Awards, and battles at conventions over “fake geek girls.” Anastasia Salter and Bridget Blodgett critique both gendered depictions of geeks, including shows like Chuck and The Big Bang Theory, and aspirational geek heroes, ranging from the Winchester brothers of Supernatural to BBC’s Sherlock and the varied superheroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Through this analysis, the authors argue that toxic masculinity is deeply embedded in geek culture, and that the identity of geek as victimized other must be redefined before geek culture and media can ever become an inclusive space.
