Convincingly, Elle’s father used to host the comic-cons, and she inherited his phone. Darien takes it into his own hands to get out of the comic-con, and he texts the person who used to host this event. These two “geeks” meet when Darien’s father (Mark) forces him to go to this annual comic-con event that Darien hasn’t attended since he lost all of his friends to fame.

He’s more than excited about playing this role – but he’s worried that the true fans of this show will despise his portrayal of the character. With a mother who abandoned him at a younger age and a father who – let’s face it – cares more about his son’s abs than his emotions – Starfield was the show that really pulled Darien through his life. Darien plays the role of a cool, 18-year-old kid who’s in this movie for the money, but in all honesty, he loves his role. Now, he’s been given the role of the main character of Starfield, a show he’s been a secret fanboy of since he was a child. Elle’s life has changed into being the outcast of the family, often forced to do chores around the house and wish more than anything she was in the Starfield universe.ĭarien Freeman is an upcoming teenage heartthrob, loved by what seems like millions of girls for his acting in a previous soap opera.

Elle now lives with her terrible stepmother, Catherine, and her daughters, Chloe and Calliope (Cal). However, after the death of her father, her life changed. She always used to go to comic-cons and special events along with her father, who was truly everything she had. Elle is a full-time fan of a popular show she shared with her father named Starfield. Geekerella follows the perspective of two different people: Danielle (Elle) Wittimer and Darien Freeman. And I have to say, I absolutely adore this book and everything Ashley Poston completed with it. It’s exactly what it sounds like – a Cinderella retelling, but with geeks.

If you’re in love with retellings, Geekerella may just be the book for you. Hundreds of retellings have been made about classic stories, one of the largest types being classic fairy tales and characters that thousands of people know. Whether it comes from the original “Brothers Grimm” stories or Disney’s version of it, Cinderella has always been a classic part of fairy tales. Everyone knows – or has heard of – Cinderella.
