Review: Gamer Girl by Mari Mancusi

Gamer Girl is an amazing book. This story shows the truth about bullying, fitting in, individulaity, popularity, and all other things. If you want a tree Teen Drama or are a manga lover or ANYBODY who likes to read, Gamer Girl will not dissapoint.
This story follows teenager Maddy Starr a girl who has just moved into her grandmother's house due to her parent's divorce. At her old school, diversity wasn't a problem, everybody was their own person and balance was maintained in the school. She was with all the goths, hardcore emos, and manga loving people. Maddy had amazing friends and a perfect life but than she had to move. Her life has fallen apart and from day one of her new high school, she was instantly torn down by laughter and mocking. She only has a few real friends. For her birthday she recives the game Fields of Fantasy, a game she's wanted to play FOREVER it seems. She suddenly is addicted to the game because she feels she's only accepted as a Gamer Girl. She goes by the name Allora and meets a very charming guy online named Sir Leo. She really wants to meet him, and falls in love with him but still doens't truly know him. All the while she deals with her family problems, her school drama, and trying to fit in as best as she can. The story is heartwarming and truly an eye opening book to the reality of bullying. This story will pick you up from page one and will have you racing through the book in hours. It's a great read, (in this review I wont spoil anything) and I assure you that you will thoroughly enjoy it. This book is five out of five stars.
