Welcome to the group! You have a fine start for the challenge. I started one of your first YAs, Geektastic. I don't know know if I laughed so hard at the first story because of the characters or because I understood so many of the references.

Yea mamzel, It was a really entertaining book. I loved it because I am that nerdy and the stories seem to be normal goings-on of my friends too.
