Disney Adults : exploring (and falling in love with) a magical subculture / by Wolfe, AJ,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."A fascinating and enlightening deep dive into the infamous Disney Adult community from the woman behind the popular website The Disney Food Blog. Disney Adults are grown-ups who derive singular, almost obsessive, joy from all things Disney. They devote countless hours and millions of dollars to Disney offerings, whether or not they have children. They're avid fans of the films, devotees of the Disney theme parks, collectors of the vast world of Disney merchandise, cosplayers who dress in clothing inspired by Disney characters. Their ranks are so large and their cultural impact so distinct that they have their own moniker and are an economic force unto themselves. They're often maligned in the larger culture and put on a particularly high pedestal of cringe. But in truth, their obsessive fandom hints at a universal desire for pleasure and joy, for magic and escape. There are darker sides to Disney mania that can't be ignored, but the ranks of the Disney Adult community are broad, deep, and ever-growing. Disney Adults are a telling microcosm of modern America, highlighting the value we place on magic and escapism, and what we deem to be "acceptable" sources of joy. Disney Adults dives deep into a misunderstood subculture, exploring the lives and experiences of a fascinating community to better understand its devotees' unwavering passion for all things Disney, why it offends, and why it matters"--

Not how I pictured it / by Lefler, Robin,author.;
"Agnes "Ness" Larkin has been out of the spotlight since her quick departure twenty years ago from a starring role in a hit teen TV drama. When the show is tapped for a reboot, no one is more surprised than Ness that she signs on to rejoin the cast, leaving behind a normal--if not exactly thrilling--life in Toronto. Also back for round two are Libby, Ness's former best friend and soon-to-be makeup-empire magnate, and Hayes, Ness's one-that-got-away, who has risen to A-list fame (and somehow gotten even better looking) in the ensuing years. After the cast sets off for filming near the Bahamas, a storm rolls in and leaves the seven actors and one production assistant stranded on a small island, with only an abandoned, derelict mansion in which to wait out the storm. But when the weather clears and a new day rises, they find that their boat is gone. Stuck in a bizarre, crumbling house on an uninhabited island with possibly the most useless survival group in history, Ness and her co-stars are forced to revisit a minefield of past transgressions and come to terms with the adults they've become as they work together to ride out their personal storms. Or at least pretend to. They are actors, after all. Interspersed with weather reports, fictional memoir excerpts and Perez Hilton-esque blog posts, Not How I Pictured It is a rollicking novel of delightful absurdity, pithy dialogue and no shortage of heart."--
