Spotlight Monday: Gamer Girl by Mari Mancusi









                        About:


                        After Maddy's parents divorce, she's stuck starting over at a new high school. Friendless and nicknamed Freak Girl, Manga-loving artist Maddy finds refuge in the interactive online game Fields of Fantasy. In that virtual world, she reinvents herself as Allora, a gorgeous elfin alter ego, and she meets a true friend in Sir Leo. Maddy can't hide behind Allora forever, especially as a real-life crush begins edging on her budding virtual romance. But would anyone ever pick the real Maddy, gamer girl and Manga freak, over the fantasy? This fresh geeky/cool novel includes online chats and exciting gaming, and features Maddy's Mangastyle artwork.

I read this book so long ago but it still sticks with me. This book covers the huge issue of being the new kid, divorce, and bullying. I can't find another character I connect more with than Maddy. This book is one of my high recommends. It will stick with you forever.
