The Princess and the Fangirl
- A Geekerella Fairytale (The Once upon a Con Series, Book 2)
- Narrated by: Eileen Stevens, Emily Lawrence, Caitlin Davies
Imogen Lovelace is an ordinary fangirl on an impossible mission: to save her favorite character, Princess Amara, from being killed from her favorite series, Starfield. The thing is, Jessica Stone, the actress who plays Princess Amara, wants nothing more than to leave behind the intense scrutiny of the fandom. If this year’s ExcelsiCon isn’t her last, she’ll consider her career derailed.
When a case of identity confusion causes Imogen and Jess to look alike, they quickly become enemies. But when the script for the Starfield sequel is leaked, and all signs point to Jess, she and Imogen have to switch places to find out who’s responsible. That is easier said than done as the girls put themselves in each other’s shoes and explore new possibilities for romance, as well as another side of the intense fandom. As these “princesses” race to find the leaker of the script, they must rescue themselves from their own expectations and redefine what it means to live happily ever after.
The retelling of classic stories we grew up with but with a modern twist is what keeps me coming back to the series. I wish there had been more time for Ethan and Imogene, but the focus of the book is on Jess and her dilemmas, which I respect but don’t care much about.
I really enjoyed this book! In fact, the series may be behind the fee wall, I’d be happy to credit my credit. The story rich in action, passion and the world of funds is something new to me. The homosexual relationship in the story is also natural, not forced like some other stories. There are no obvious romantic scenes. And there are some nice thoughts and messages about self-esteem and respect for others in the story. I will definitely let my teenage kids listen to it as well.
Immerse yourself in a world of geeks and bookworms tinged with fairy dust at this year’s Excelcicon once again! Jess and Imogen tell the fairy tale of the Prince and the Beggar on a star-studded spin around conference floors rife with the hassle of being a teen movie star and a teen fangirl. Thrilling, touching, real and honest, a fun ride to the end. Look up at the stars, aim, … burn!
