Cute idea, directed to kids more than adults. It is a very fast read.

A handbook for how to get your full "geek" status. Read a short chapter and go and complete the activities suggested, you'll get more out of it. The author has some good ideas which should appeal to introvert geeks. It's a not a book to read in one sitting, though it can be done.

Interesting with bright colors to keep your attention. Some of the activities come with a fill-this-in portion so you can complete them right in the book.
