The SuicideGirls are a collection of more than 2,500 pin-up girls devoted to changing your idea about what makes a woman beautiful ... and they are naked. Started in Portland, Oregon, by Missy Suicide and her friends in 2001, the SuicideGirls broke conventional notions of beauty and the pin-up girl ideal as defined by men's and women's magazines and the culture at large. This time around "SuicideGirls isn't redefining what it means to be beautiful or what it means to be a geek. They're celebrating the fact [they've] always been here, [they've] always been geeks, and [they've] always been beautiful." "SuicideGirls: Geekology" casts the spotlight on the self-proclaimed geeks of the SuicideGirls population―the video-game players, the comic-book readers, the Trekkies, and many other shining examples of the culture they're celebrating. There's something really wonderful about this book. There's something beautiful around the idea of showcasing girl geeks in all their glory: to go beyond the photos and find out that, to us, each piece of the picture means something. To find out how many hours we put into designing our cosplay and how attentive we are to the homages we create. We're not just playing dress up in a world we know nothing about. We were right there with it, helping to build popularity from the ground up: first in line, issue number one. Once a subculture of a subculture, women are now a full force in the geek community. Review: Worth the invested money - Beautiful, geeky girls sharing with us, happy readers and/or beholders, the naked curves of their awesome bodies and nerdy hearts. I would like to recommend this gem of a book to every devoted fan of soft subculture erotica, be it goth, emo or punk. Thanks for Your attention. Review: Real models here...no fakes... - Geek or not, SuicideGirls continues to clear away the stereotype description of beauty. The term alt-models doesn't apply, since these lovely ladies define model...in their natural state, being who they are and not some overly made-up fake with 10 tons of airbrushing to make them presentable. All it took to get me interested was a single picture someone posted on Twitter. I Googled it and found not only the SuicideGirls themselves, but my absolute favorite....Kieve. Colombian, blue hair(now neon green), a nice variety of tattoos, and just simply...wow. I'm addicted, and I've got to get all products. Just bought the Suicide Girls Must Die movie, and an accompanying metal sign poster.

One of the best of the SG books
This is one of my favorite SG books. The pictures are nice. It gives a little bio on each one of the models. I like the whole Geekology thing, It's not a book on Cosplay, and stays true to the name. If you are into the Suicide Girls, this is definitely worth a look.

Alternative
I've always thought the SG ladies were very interesting, I love the nonconventual look. I have alot in common with most of them, awkward, geeky, introvert, and highly tattooed. This book could use more text with the ladies, but it does let you know some insight. The pictures are very relaxed and being taken by different artists is great. The ladies are very free and uninhibited and the sets areare full of variety. The book makes a great coffee table conversation.

Great book for SG fans!
Quality of the book is top-shelf! Good paper, printing & binding. Each model has a full page splash & a 'scrap book' style collage of their pics from the site. I LOVE it. Check the images in the listing if you're unsure of the layout but I find this to be good value for the price.

Perfectly SG for the Nerds!
This one is just as good as the other SG book I own and it's really great. Sexy, artistic very cool, NOT PORN. I really enjoy it. It's SG with a nerdy flair. Very nice!

This is probably the best of the SuicideGirls books yet
This is probably the best of the SuicideGirls books yet. There is some actually writing about each model, great compositional work on the photos. There really isn't anything negative to say about this book, except that there isn't more!

Suicide Girls Generic
I bought the Beauty Redefined book about 5 years ago and really thought it was good work. Giving this book a try I'm sorely disappointed. Suicide Girls have basically become the cookie cutter style of models they were trying to be in the first place and all of the flavor texts accompanying the photos read like your standard issue Reddit post. "I'M SOOOO SOCIALLY AWKWARD!" "DR.WHO IS THE BEST EVER." "HARRYPOTTERKNITTINGPOKEMONDEATHSTAR!" Ugh.

The girls under the covers.
The cover girl is the best,of course but there are other cracking girls inside. Some lovely green eyed red heads ! I was mainly interested in the costumes and the girls' interests. The tattoos are Ok but I didn't get enough of what I wanted. I'm interested in Manga and the cosplaying of those characters. R2D2 is OK but it's NOT enough.I wanted in depth interviews about venues and get ups. Sadly for me,it's more about the girls and a very brief paragraph about their hobbies. No convention pics or cosplay sessions.....,boo hoo. I wanted to know about sewing seams,materials,time and dedication involved. I've just realised..,there's NO goths ! Some heavy eye make up but that's it. As to all shapes and sizes..,as previous reviewers have said...,not in here there ain't ! It's your average 20 - 30 somethings.Fine,if that's what rocks your boat. 10/10 for the cover girl though. Well,that is why I bought the book....,duh ! Yeah..,Ok..,I admit...,it rocked my boat !

Hübsche Girls mit tollen Tattoos
Ein wirklich sehr schönes Buch für Liebhaber von Tattoos auf hübschen Frauen. Der Preis ist zwar schon stolz, allerdings ist es wirklich sehr angenehm, einfach durch das Buch zu blättern und die Bilder anzusehen. Wenn man sich Zeit lässt, dauert es schon ca. 2 Stunden, bis man das Buch durchgesehen hat. Fotografisch sehr gut in Szene gesetzt meiner Meinung nach. Wem die Suicide Girls gefallen oder die Mädels teilweise schon kennt kann hier nichts falsch machen. Die Texte neben den Models sind schon etwas eigenartig, aber wegen den Texten habe ich das Buch ja auch nicht gekauft.
