There's nothing worse than peaking in high school. Nobody knows that better than Josie Pie.<\/p>\n

She was kind of a big deal\u2014she 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. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, her life keeps imploding. Best friend: distant. Boyfriend: busy. Mom: not playing with a full deck? Desperate to escape, Josie gets into reading.<\/p>\n

Literally. She reads a book and suddenly she's inside it. And with each book, she\u2019s a different character: a post-apocalyptic heroine, the lead in a YA rom-com, a 17th century wench in a corset.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s alarming. But also . . . kind of amazing? <\/p>\n

It\u2019s 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.<\/p>\n

Will Josie find a story so good that she just stays forever?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t
