YA ReviewMy ThoughtsRomancing the Nerd is the second book in the Nerd series by Leah Rae Miller. Each of the books can be read as a standalone, and while the first book looks really cute and has been on my TBR pile since its' release, I have yet to read it. However, I had no problem jumping right in with this book. I think the connection with the two is Dan. He was a minor secondary character in The Summer I became a Nerd. I loved Dan. I really liked Zelda too, but Dan held a special place in my heart.
As is my preference with contemporary romances, Romancing the Nerd is told in dual narrative between Zelda and Dan. This book is cute and really funny read. Zelda and Dan are both nerds at heart, and while Zelda is also a what she would consider a nerd on the outside, Dan is a nerd turned popular jock. They each have had a crush on the other for years, which is adorable. Zelda does come off as pretty mean to poor Dan. Dan never lets that discourage him though, which I loved. He knows that his Zelda is stubborn, and darn nit if he doesn't like that about her. He is just so enamored with her.

Romancing the Nerd is one big chase full of laughs, bickering and non stop quips. And as much as I enjoyed that, I wanted to see more time for Zelda and Dan to actually be together. I am kind of hoping that we get to see more of them for just that reason. I love their wittiness...and their bantering. I really enjoyed them. And I loved all the nerdy goodness in Romancing the Nerd. I consider myself a proud member of the nerd club, and love it when my books feature fellow nerds. I will say that the whole revenge concept made the book and characters feel a little on the younger side. Still, it was a very, very enjoyable read. I had a lot of fun with this one.
Bottom line: Romancing the Nerd is a great book for younger, young adult readers and readers that like books full of fun and witty dialogue.
