Description

From Shannon Hale, bestselling author of Austenland, comes Kind of a Big Deal: a hilarious, madcap story that will suck you in--literally.


There's nothing worse than peaking in high school. Nobody knows that better than Josie Pie.


She was kind of a big deal--she 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, she's a different character: a post-apocalyptic heroine, the lead in a YA rom-com, a 17th century wench in a corset.


It's alarming. But also . . . kind of amazing?


It's 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?
