Geek Charming by Robin Palmer
Dylan Shoenfield is the princess of L.A.’s posh Castle Heights High. She has the coolest boyfriend, the most popular friends, and a brand-new “it” bag that everyone covets. But when she accidentally tosses her bag into a fountain, this princess comes face-to-face with her own personal frog: selfprofessed film geek Josh Rosen. In return for rescuing Dylan’s bag, Josh convinces Dylan to let him film her for his documentary on high school popularity. Reluctantly, Dylan lets F-list Josh into her A-list world, and is shocked to realize that sometimes nerds can be pretty cool. But when Dylan’s so-called prince charming of a boyfriend dumps her flat, her life—and her social status— comes to a crashing halt. Can Dylan—with Josh’s help—pull the pieces together to create her own happily-ever-after?
Released on February 5th 2009.
Geek alert? Film geek alert? Yes, could me in! I can't wait to see Josh win over Dylan's heart and spout some great film references in the process! Yay!
What are you waiting on to be released?

Perfect Fifths!!! :) Can't wait. I should get the ARC in a few weeks. :)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like such a cute story!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a sweet bok!
ReplyDeleteHere is mine!
Oh, so cute!
ReplyDeleteKinda like a modern retelling of The Princess and the Frog?
I love stories where the geek triumphs! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting on the third installment of the City of Bones, City of Ashes books by Cassandra Clare, because the second one ends with something of a cliffhanger. Also on Daniel Waters' third book, because I just read the ARC of Kiss of Life, which is coming out this May, and it ends with a cliffhanger about one character.
ReplyDeleteI came over here from J. Kaye's this morning.
yes I've been working on my darn blog all morning. Finally found a template I like. Now I have to add all the widgets again.
ReplyDeleteI've got this book in my TBR pile! I absolutely loved Robin's first book Cindy Ella, and am excited to read more from her. I think she's working on a third fairy tale retelling, but I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteThat does sound like such a cute book. A new quirky spin on a classic fairytale. I'm especially curious to see why Josh dumps Dylan flat and whether she'll be able to win him back. (Yikes, I think I may find myself waiting on this title, too. LOL)
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting on ZOMBIES...(ate my brain -- sorry, had to add that).
I love fairy tale re-tellings. Sounds cute.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds cute. The whole documentary on popularity reminds me of this old TV show (yes, I LOVE old shows, though this one is not really that old)Popular.
ReplyDeleteOh, how nice to see people so excited to read it ;) Yup, it's a retelling of THE FROG PRINCE, and, yup, I just finished a retelling of LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD, which will be released in Feb '10. Thanks for reading, guys.
ReplyDeleteWasn't on my radar...until now!

ReplyDeleteThis sounds so great doesn't it guys! I can't wait to read it! I don't think I've read many retellings but I'm really getting excited about them!
Jeanne- J. Kaye is the greatest! I just bought City of Bones to try out!
