The Fangirl's Guide to the Galaxy: A Lexicon of Life Hacks for the Modern Lady Geek

Empowering, joyous guide for geek girl solidarity.

If you've ever felt like an outlier in the world of cons, fanfic, or gaming because of your gender, "The Fangirl's Guide to the Galaxy" is the witty beacon you've been searching for. It's a celebration of all things nerdy through a feminist lens, mixed with valuable advice for navigating the geek community. Expect to find both affirmation that your passions are valid and a sense of camaraderie with fellow female geeks. Plus, the tips on geek culture from someone who truly knows the ropes can turn even the greenest newbie into a confident con-goer.
