Book ID/图书代码: 11186018C00015
English Summary/英文概要: 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 bestselling 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-a-likes 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.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 电影明星Jessica Stone无法忍受假装爱Starfield,但她的合同规定她必须这样做。她从未想过自己会一辈子扮演Amara公主。受人爱戴的公主有着一张Jessica Stone的脸。但有人也有着同样的脸庞……Imogen Lovelace长得非常像Jessica Stone。所以,当Jess发现这一点时,一个绝妙的主意出现在她的脑海里:交换身份!Jess可以暂别聚光灯,而Imogen可以告别她那脏兮兮的工作,去外面的世界开开眼界。
Jess并没有想到自己会喜欢上Imogen的生活,也没有想到会喜欢上一个没有名气的女孩,而她正需要这样一个女孩的身份来忘记自己的前任男友。Imogen喜欢Jess的生活,直到她陷入狗仔队的陷阱,意识到名声并非所有人认为的那样。随着媒体准备揭露她们的秘密,Jess和Imogen都不得不站出来为事实辩护……
我很高兴与大家分享有关《公主与粉丝女孩》的正面评价:“有时,最好的故事是那些能够传递给观众的故事,不是严肃的哲学,而是有趣、轻松的故事。”(LYR)
