    Geek Girl is a well-written and well-acted look at what happens when someone who doesn’t usually embrace surprises in life does so out of the simple desire to be seen.

    Smale and fellow novelist Jessica Ruston’s screen version has retained the joyful essence of the books and – with a deeply admiring nod to the casting directors here – have in Emily Carey a Harriet who delivers everything they need.

    It’s a solid showcase for its 21-year-old star. Geek Girl is a likably wholesome, generally low-stakes YA fairy tale — references to Cinderella abound.
