Lilly Martin is not model-material, but Adam Hiller is, and it turns out he likes to wear dresses when nobody's looking, and is in fact not a 'he' at all. When their school announces a fashion designing competition, Lilly decides to kill two (or three) birds with one stone and: 1) Win the fashion competition by making the best dress Edgley High has ever seen. 2) Help Adam (who prefers Eve, thank you very much) come out as the girl she is. 3) Annoy the bigots.

Three friends. Two love stories. One convention. In this geeky romance, three BFFs go to SupaCon in search of fandom, and end up finding love. Charlie likes to stand out. Fresh from a public break-up with co-star Jason Ryan, SupaCon is her chance to prove to the fandom that she doesn't belong in anybody's shadow. But with her fans refusing to abandon the Charlie/Jason 'Chase' ship, opening her heart to someone new won't be easy. Taylor likes to blend in. Her SupaCon dream is simple: meet her idol, Skyler Atkins, a.k.a Queen Firestone. Entering the Queen Firestone SupaFan Contest seems like a no brainer - fangirling is her thing, she's even got the cosplay to prove it. But paralyzing anxiety is also her thing, and it's held her back her whole life. From the bestselling author of THE EVA SERIES and filled with geekiness, cosplay and fandom, QUEENS OF GEEK is a story about friendship, self-discovery and finding the courage to love with all your heart. (Formerly What Happens At SupaCon). COMING TO BOOKSTORES IN 2017 FROM SWOON READS/MACMILLAN PUBLISHING!
