The Geek is Back in the hilarious series and Book 5 is no different, new friends new boys and new jobs Harriet must wade back through the world of modelling to help out an old friend, but Harriet needs to control, every aspect of her life at the moment and that will either make people like her or make people hate her but it is never who you think because the person who you may think is your friend could become so much more....

I loved this book i finished it in one sitting as with all of the other books, it is such a cute lovely read and one i enjoyed immensely. Whenever i read from Harriet's perspective she is so relateable and normal compared to a lot of YA heroines and that is refreshing and one of the best in this genre by miles. 
The character development from the first book, is amazing it really feels like these characters have grown in the short time we have known them Harriet for one has grown the most, and even Wilbur has grown as well. the entire supporting cast from Nat to a model on one of the shoots brings its all together and that is very rare in a book let alone an entire series.

Even though this book is over 400 pages long it doesn't feel it and there were two different stories going on the one at home with her friends and the one with Wilbur and both were fabulous they complimented each other and also it shows that it isn't easy balancing your work and social life as Harriet shows in true Harriet style. 

New relationships formed in this book that i am not too sure about but the last line gave me hope for my OTP and the next book, But in this book we see Harriet struggling with her decision regarding Nick and how no one can say his name around her and to me i felt so bad for her as i have has personal experience in that department (breaking up with someone for their own good) it is written so perfectly that you don't do what a lot of fandoms do and choose side you understand why she does what she does and accept it, as soon as i finished this book i put on instagram that i needed the next book Pronto and Holly Smale wrote back saying she hasn't written the next one yet :'( 

Over all it was another Laugh out loud, hilariously funny and also an emotional roller coaster of a book and i highly recommend it to any one the entire series will lift you up if you feel down and it will make you feel better with an amazing message inside a wonderful UKYA book.

Until Next Time
Happy Reading
