This is a great collection of smart, funny and touching essays and comics about the loves of geek girls - from video games and LOTR to friends and romantic partners. I learned a lot about myself reading this and why as a nerdy, obsessive type I have such a hard time with love. I’m glad I’m not the only one! Plus, awesome cover art by Noelle Stevenson!
