The Fandom
Published by Scholastic Inc.
A compulsively readable and clever YA mix of fantasy and contemporary, it’s Inkheart meets Kill the Boy Band, for fans of Patrick Ness and Rainbow Rowell!
Violet is in her element. Cosplay at the ready, she can’t wait to feel part of her favorite fandom: The Gallows Dance, a mega book and movie franchise that she and her friends know EVERY WORD of (canon and fanfic included). But at Comic Con, a freak accident transports Violet and her friends into the story for real. And in just the first five minutes, they cause the death of the heroine, and get taken prisoner by the rebel group she was supposed to lead to victory. It’s up to Violet to take her place, and play out the plot the way it was written. But stories have a life of their own, and when you change the script in one place, the rest gets revised too . . .
“An absolute thrill to read. Turning so many conventions on their head, Day gives us a story that can make you rethink the world, make you laugh, and make you bite your fingernails off, all while falling in love with her characters. Highly recommended!” —James Dashner, #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Maze Runner
“A glorious epic to fan culture . . . for fans of Fangirl and Caraval.” —BuzzFeed
“Day’s debut novel blends the joy of falling in love and the stark terror of actually becoming part of a fictional world, with no idea how to return home.” —Publishers Weekly
