From Shannon Hale, bestselling author of Austenland, comes Kind of a Big Deal: a story that will suck you inâliterally.
âSo many strange and wonderful things happen at every twist and turn, you'll be happy to wander with Josie . . . Each book she descends into seems to teach her something, and even if it's not obvious where the story is going, we're in it for the long haul.â âNPR
There's nothing worse than peaking in high school. Nobody knows that better than Josie Pie.
She was kind of a big dealâshe dropped out of high school to be a star! But the bigger you are, the harder you fall. And Josie fell. Hard. Ouch. Broadway dream: dead.
Meanwhile, her life keeps imploding. Best friend: distant. Boyfriend: busy. Mom: not playing with a full deck? Desperate to escape, Josie gets into reading.
Literally. She reads a book and suddenly she's inside it. And with each book, sheâs a different character: a post-apocalyptic heroine, the lead in a YA rom-com, a 17th century wench in a corset.
Itâs alarming. But also . . . kind of amazing?
Itâs the perfect way to live out her fantasies. Book after book, Josie the failed star finds a new way to shine. But the longer she stays in a story, the harder it becomes to escape.
Will Josie find a story so good that she just stays forever?
