Liking the 1st book GEEK HIGH, I bought this one... it was as good as the 1st one with the little different plots.
The Snowflake Gala is done and out of the way and Miranda Bloom, math genius, is headed off to England for Christmas break to visit her mother.
I really enjoyed seeing Miranda develop into a stronger individual and really stand up for what she believed in.
Piper Banks has made her mark... I was amazed at the emotional reponse her writing was able to provoke out of m More...

Like Geek High, Geek Abroad was a purely fun and entertaining novel.
What I liked most about Geek Abroad was how even though Miranda seemed like one of the smartest person I will ever know; she also has another side: a stupid side. But then again, most of us do. She ends up making a huge mistake – or a small one, depending on how you look at it – and freaks out when it’s all just a huge misunderstanding. I liked how Piper gave us another side of Miranda and, like I said for the other More...

I actually interlibrary loaned this one because the entire chicago public library system doesn't have any piper banks books. it was very fun, although not as much in england as i would have liked. i was charmed by the characters, but it was a pretty basic high school YA plot and while i'm curious about the last two i'm only on-hold curious, not buy or interlibrary loan curious.

As readable as the first one. Same standard plotline as found in much YA, but still better than a lot of the crap that's out there right now.
I guess my biggest annoyance would be that the title is rather misleading as the geek is only abroad for about 30% of the book. Other than that, a solid effort.

Does she like Dex, or does she like Henry? Does she want to live in London to escape the evil step-monster, or does she want to stay in Florida with Dex and her friends? The only redeeming bit of this pointless story was the intensity of the math competition scenes.

Piper Banks makes this story here own once again, giving it a totally different twist as she did with the first one. You'll just have to see what's in store for this Geek the second-time around.

not a bad young adult book. I did not read the first book in the series but this one had enough information that I do not think I missed anything from the first book.

This one was not as good as the first one. It still kept me interested and wanting to read more. I loved the guy in London.

Didn't like it that much .. Skipped a lot of pages to see what happen (did the same thing to the rest of the series )

I needed something brain dead to read during finals, and it did a good job of being brain dead yet interesting.

This book was pretty good. I liked how she had to choose between two guys. That was interestiing.

Had fun reading it. But I'm starting to hate the writer's writing. Hmmm. Off to Summer of the Geek!

Read this right after I finished the first. Still fun and just the right length.

This is the sequel to Geek High. It good, but not as good as Geek High.

I thought the book was really good, but the book did have some typos in it. So the typos kinda made the book okayish to me, but I really liked the plot of the story.

I didn't enjoy this one as much as the first, and I'm not planning on reading the rest of the books.

This is a lighthearted, fun-to-read, and engaging book. It's actually the sequel of Geek High (which I haven't read yet because I just kind of picked this book off the shelve and I didn't know there was a book before this). Anyway, I thought it was good...but parts of the book weren't so original. I felt like I read it in some other book or at least like bits of it, but other that it was good.
