Ship It
by Britta Lundin
This book kept me up until 2am reading and made my toes curl in delight. The story weaves between two narrators. Claire is a student in Pine Bluff, Idaho, who escapes from the boredom and loneliness of high school by immersing herself in online fandom for her favorite show, Demon Heart (aka Supernatural mixed with Buffy). Forest Reed is one of the actors on Demon Heart and plays Smokey, one half of the popular m/m ship, SmokeyHeart. Demon Heart is just wrapping up it's first season, and Forest and his co-star Rico Quiroz are scheduled for a promotional convention tour. When Claire reads that Forest and Rico will be at a con in Boise, she talks her mom into driving down for the weekend. NO ONE is a bigger Demon Heart fan than Claire, so when circumstances lead to her shouting at her favs during the Q&A at their panel, she is almost as surprised as everyone else. When she coincidentally "wins" an all expenses paid trip to accompany the cast and crew to their next two conventions Claire is deeply suspicious- but not about to give up her access to insider information. Or her chance to see more of Tess, an intriguing and attractive fellow fan, who is also road-tripping to follow the Demon Heart tour. An A+ look into the world of fandom and the process of showrunning from a writer who is very familiar with both.
