The Princess and the Fangirl

A Geekerella Fairytale (The Once upon a Con Series, Book 2)

By: Ashley Poston

Narrated by: Eileen Stevens, Emily Lawrence, Caitlin Davies

The Prince and the Pauper gets a modern makeover in this adorable, witty, and heartwarming young-adult novel set in the Geekerella universe by national best-selling author Ashley Poston.

Imogen Lovelace is an ordinary fangirl on an impossible mission: save her favorite character, Princess Amara, from being killed off from her favorite franchise, Starfield. The problem is, Jessica Stone, the actress who plays Princess Amara, wants nothing more than to leave the intense scrutiny of the fandom behind. If this year's ExcelsiCon isn't her last, she'll consider her career derailed.

When a case of mistaken identity throws look-alikes Imogen and Jess together, they quickly become enemies. But when the script for the Starfield sequel leaks, and all signs point to Jess, she and Imogen must trade places to find the person responsible. That's easier said than done when the girls step into each other's shoes and discover new romantic possibilities, as well as the other side of intense fandom. As these "princesses" race to find the script leaker, they must rescue themselves from their own expectations and redefine what it means to live happily ever after.

Loved it!

I liked this book even more than the 1st in the series. Sweet story and livable characters.

I couldn’t finish thanks to Jess

Jess may be the most unbearable character. She whines all the time and the narrator dies a great job of conveying her whining. I serious just had it with her and turned it off bc I couldn’t hear her complaining anymore.

cute cute cute

Story moves quickly
Characters grabbed me from the beginning
Narration was flawless
Looking foewllrward to the next in series

Same sci-fi universe but in a Freaky Friday sort of way...

This series continues with book #2 bringing back a few characters from book #1, but this time the princess is in the lead.
By finding a doppelganger, both of them find both a better understanding of themselves and a better life for them both with people they love at the end.
Little irritating that we don't get to find out if Milo makes QB.

Super sweet follow up

A great listen that I flew through! loved meeting new characters in the same Geekerella universe ✨️
