The Geeks Shall Inherit the Earth: Popularity, Quirk Theory and Why Outsiders Thrive After High School by Alexandra Robbins

3.0

I thought this book was interesting and an informative summary of ideas about popularity in the high school caste system, although I think Robbins oversimplifies the outcast idea. She focuses very heavily on the perceived popularity group as having all of the negative qualities of adolescents, while ignoring the hierarchy established within each clique. Overall though, I found myself thinking about different ideas and considering parenting ideas for my own future children.
