Here's a twist on this month's FCPL Reading Challenge! Spoiler Alert is a book about a book series that was made into a television show.
April Whittier is a hardcore fan of the biggest show on TV, God of the Gates, especially the fandom's favorite couple to ship, Aeneas and Lavinia. She hides her fandom life as a cosplayer and popular fanfiction author, Unapologetic Lavinia Stan. She's thrown into the spotlight after her plus-sized Lavinia cosplay goes viral.
Marcus Caster-Rupp is known to the world as the actor who plays Aeneas on God of the Gates. He also secretly writes fanfiction about his own character and befriends Unapologetic Lavinia Stan under the name Book!AeneasWouldNever. After seeing criticism on a fan's Lavinia cosplay, he asks her out on a date to spite the critics.
Find out what happens when a publicity stunt date turns into a steamy romance, followed by an avalanche of secrets and misunderstandings that are straight out of fanfiction.
This is a unique, geeky, sexy read that tackles the difficult issues of fatphobia, unsupportive families, dyslexia, and cyber bullying while highlighting body-positivity, self-confidence, and the importance of being yourself.
