If you’ve been around the twitter-sphere and the internet in
general for as long as I have, you would know what are FANGIRLS and how these
notorious pupil are known for their bad rep. (And for a good reason too). In
general, Fan Girls are obsessive about pretty much anything and everything
related to their respective Fandoms. Some fan girls are genuine well-wishers of
their idols, but others take everything wayyyy overboard and literally can turn
into anyone’s worst nightmare.
The book KILL THE BOY BAND by Goldy Moldavsky is a very interestingly
hilarious YA novel, and a cautious tale of a couple of fangirls and their adventure of
following a boyband to such an extent, that it quickly turns into a murder mystery.
Goldy brilliantly portrayed the in-depth characters of the obsessive
teens and their behavioral tendencies amidst the unexpected situation where the
girls mistakenly abduct one of their oh-so-loved band THE RUPERTS’s member,
Rupert P, who in reality was nothing but the most hated dead weight in the
band. Things further escalates when the girls find out that the abducted member
of the band choked himself to death whilst trying to break free from the chair
that he was tied to.
Further into the book, the mystery gets further complicated of whether
Rupert P died on his own terms or was he killed by one of the girls, or was it
an actual case of auto erotic asphyxiation (or so thought by his band mates
when they find his body in their room, which the girls left there on purpose to
save themselves).
And even amidst the shitstorm around, can a fangirl actually hope to meet her favorite band member in hopes of getting her happily-ever-after with him after all? Well, a girl can dream. This hilarious tale of hysteric fangirls, an unexpected abduction,
an obsessive fake girlfriend, a murder, and a whole bunch of police arrests
will make you want to take a step back from the world of crazy fandoms.
In All, I really enjoyed the read since I was a fangirl myself and
I could totally relate to a lot of the stuff in the book, which is nothing but embarrassing
for the Now-Adult me. dontjudgethankss :p (Take a good look at the picture below and take a guess who i was crazily in love with a long time back.)
Till I post more of my Book reviews (a lot on the way, check out
