When summer is almost here it means more time for teenage bookworms to read! There are so many good books to chose from, so I’ve put together a list of some of my favorite novels for teenage girls! This list has some absolute gems that I hope you will love!
1. Geekerella – Ashley Poston

Starting off my list of novels for teenage girls is Geekerella! Elle Wittimer is obsessed with Starfield, a sci-fi series she grew up watching with her late father. When she finds out about a cosplay contest for a new Starfield movie, Elle is determined to enter. If she wins, she will recieve an invitation to the ExcelsiCon Cosplay Ball, as well as a meet-and-greet with the actor who will play Federation Prince Carmindor in the reboot. Elle is determined to win.
Teen actor Darien Freeman is not a fan of cons. They are nothing but awkward meet-and-greets and autographs. All he has ever wanted to do is to play Carmindor, but the Starfield fandom thinks he is just another dumb heartthrob. As ExcelsiCon approaches, Darien feels like a fake – until he runs across a girl who shows him otherwise.
