"In a crowd of thousands" Really Ashley? did you seriously...
I love Anastasia retellings.
I wish I had re-read the first book (because it's been like 9 months) because I'm confused, but I don't care. And I think I could have enjoyed the relationships more
I need more content. Short stories or something. Pleaaaaase.

Geekerella by Ashley Poston

Summary: "Geek girl Elle Wittimer lives and breathes Starfield, the classic sci-fi series she grew up watching with her late father. So when she sees a cosplay contest for a new Starfield movie, she has to enter. The prize? An invitation to the ExcelsiCon Cosplay Ball, and a meet-and-greet with the actor slated to play Federation Prince Carmindor in the reboot."

This book was cute-ish and fun-ish. I appreciated the Cinderella parallels, and the sci-fi geekiness. 

However, I needed just a little bit more drama and pay-off at the end.
