All the Feels All is Fair in Love and Fandom Danika Stone Books
I can't relate to these fandom books. I like movies and TV and (of course) books, but I don't think I've ever been so obsessed with any one series or franchise that I would cry for days when a character died. I definitely wouldn't devote the better part of a year to trying to bring the character back.I do understand the addiction to online interaction and the substitution of forums and chat for real world. However, although Gary was repugnant, I found myself agreeing with him when he called her a spoiled child and harangued her for ignoring her responsibilities. For one thing, her online activities had already torpedoed her scholarship and forced her mother to pay for her college and the kid doesn't even care. Trust me, if a kid in my home did that, they'd be working at least one job to help cover their tuition.
This kid IS spoiled and she never grows out of it. She never apologizes to her mother for the way she acts, she never acknowledges the sacrifices her mother is making for her, she never admits she owes her mother a single thing. I found her attitude so perfectly typical of modern kids that she was almost impossible to root for. Even in her relationship with the love interest she is completely self-absorbed and selfish, greedily taking and taking and taking and never thinking about ways to give back.
If this kid hadn't been such a spoiled brat, I would have loved this book despite my disinterest in fandom. But, even with my distaste for the main character, I enjoyed it, just not as much as I would have if she had grown up a little bit.

All the Feels All is Fair in Love and Fandom Danika Stone Books Reviews
Liv is part of the fandom for Starveil and when I say that, you should interpret that as this Starveil is her life. Except for her best friend Xander, it's what she cares about most. And then the new movie came out and her favorite character died. Liv is devastated...until she realizes that she can fix it. So she creates a video bringing him back to life. Her fellow fans jump on board, and soon it looks like the studio is paying attention.
I really enjoyed this book. I'm a minor part of a lot of different fandoms (Harry Potter, Buffy, X-Files, horror, especially Nightmare on Elm Street) and I love the way this book handles it. Yes, Liv is OBSESSED, but we all have our thing. And Liv is never portrayed as being pathetic or bad-weird.
I also love the acknowledgment that fans can change the course of a story. We all have seen that happen and I'm generally a fan of people being passionate about things. )
Recommended.
This novel is a must read for anyone involved in a fandom. Danika Stone creates a wonderful world that is easy for readers to immerse themselves in, because the world is so similar to their own. Many teenagers like myself have been involved in some sort of fandom obsession at some point in their lives, whether that obsession centered around a person, movie, book, or all three. I found it extremely easy to relate to Liv. I’m not a college freshman yet, (although I will be this fall!) but I loved how this book wasn’t revolving on the fact that Liv attended college. It created a nice sense of normalcy and I loved that the book was focused on and explored other aspects of Liv’s life. Her relationship with her best friend Xander was portrayed exceptionally well.
Danika’s writing style is amazing. Occasionally in young adult contemporaries that are written in third person, the connection between the reader and the main character can get lost because we aren’t directly inside the lead characters head; this was not this case in ‘All the Feels’. Her writing style makes reading effortless. I believe that if an author’s writing style is the best when as I’m reading, I don’t even notice the style at all. I was so wrapped up in the story that I was able to see it play out in my head as I was reading, almost like my own personal movie instead of just reading words on a page. Danika possesses a great talent for connecting with her audience through her writing.
Liv’s talent of video editing really intrigued me, because I really want to work in the film industry after college (more specifically, translating books to visual media!), but really Liv is just a relatable character to me in general. Her personality is very similar to my own. She’s not a cliché character by any sense of the word; neither is Xander. Both of them are so dynamic and distinctly their own, and stand out from other contemporary romance characters I’ve encountered over the years. I didn’t want the book to end! Although I’ve never attended a con myself, they seem like a fangirl’s dream. This book definitely makes me want to go! We all can relate to wanting to change canon–especially when a beloved character is killed off. Liv represents and does what we all wish we could do. (Plus Xander’s girlfriend is named Arden, and that’s my twin sister’s name! It’s rare to find it used in books, so that was awesome!)
There’s so much more I would love to go on and on about, but I’ll start to talk about spoilers! All I can do is encourage you all to go out and buy this book as soon as possible. You won’t regret it!
Spoiler alert!
SPOILER ALERT!
"All the Feels" by Danika Stone
My Rating "R" for swearing, bad words, and suggestive themes.
I finished reading the story but I have yet to finish the interview with the author on the back of the book.
Cons Swearing, bad words, and inappropriate scenes/dialogue. No glossary available, so some fandom slang is hard to know what it means.
Pros I LOVE the storyline!! I was hooked since the beginning and tried hard not to continue reading so I could go to sleep, LOL! Xander and Liv are the perfect couple in this book. I'm very impressed! This story has been very well planned and written. Liv might be annoying to some people who hate whiny teenagers, but I really enjoyed her attitude because I can kinda relate I'm a hermit, hehe! And her only way she can socialize comfortably is by texting her friend and online friends. Throughout the story, I was screaming in my head to Liv and Xander KISS KISS KISS!! And they finally do near the end. They were among their own people and an internship opportunity arrived for Liv. So her dreams came true. This book was so hard to put down, and the characters stick to your mind! A very addictive story!
I would rate this book a 4 because of the cons I listed above, but the storyline was too good that I gave it a 5 star rating. )
