"Your dreams are crushed, goodbye!" Daniel North is forced back into the world of Reality TV when one of his former competitors is murdered. Now considered a "celebrity" Daniel must battle against an old adversary and face the music - literally! Celebrity Tone Death sees a bunch of Z-listers take a final shot at glory, all under the guise of winning a one-million-pound donation to their chosen charity. For the winner, a chance to make it as a popstar. For the losers, a ban on singing, shattered dreams, and a one-way ticket back to oblivion. Felix Moldoon is back to manipulate the public into voting for his choice of winner, with the help of his celebrity judges. A Scottish-American lesbian music mogul, a pop heartthrob with a not-so-secret drug problem, and a disco diva drag queen who hides a secret, which could lead to the ultimate celebrity downfall - getting cancelled! Can Felix get his "chosen one" over the finish line without murdering anyone else? Will Daniel be able to make his best friend's dream come true? And who will he ultimately choose - his twink boyfriend, or his hot daddy ex?

"You've been cancelled!" Daniel North, now the most famous man in Britain, is navigating the fickle world of celebrity. It's a daily battle as he opens his DMs - is it another unsolicited nude, or a request for him to kill himself? There's no grey area with the Reality TV fandom, and he's reluctantly heading back into the Thunderdome, this time as a judge. Social Media Superstar sees a group of influencers compete for a one-million-pound prize. There's a fitness fanatic, FX trader, political activist, porn star, drag queen, vegan, and some other filler to make up the numbers, battling it out for the title of Ultimate Influencer. For the losers, it's a one-way ticket to cancellation, and the loss of the only thing that's ever mattered to them - their blue tick! Felix Moldoon, the billionaire media tycoon, quickly decides on who will win, and the "editing" process begins. Throwing a bunch of social media nobodies to the online trolls is just the warm up for Felix's ultimate goal - the cancellation of Daniel North. Felix will do anything to get what he wants, and someone will pay the ultimate price for standing in his way. Can the cancel brigade convince the world that Daniel is a serial killer? With three men on offer, who will win Daniel's heart in the end? And will Daniel finally get the answers he's been searching for when he comes face-to-face with Felix in a final bloody confrontation?

Doesn't everybody want their five seconds of fame? What happens if you survive a gay pub bombing and the world just forgets about it? You remind them by becoming a contestant on the most brutal Reality TV show of all time. Think Big Brother meets the Hunger Games! Daniel North believes that he can take on ratings juggernaut, Complex Neighbours, with 'honourable intentions' and simply share his story before going back to a normal life. Don't worry, this reluctant hero isn't completely deluded, he's just an incredibly determined young man, and a bit of a control freak. To share his story, Daniel must battle for airtime against a new breed of Reality TV contestant. They have replaced the snowflakes as ruthlessly ambitious, money-hungry, unfeeling blocks of ice. However, the real villain of the series is behind the camera. Felix Moldoon is a media tycoon who will do anything to ensure high viewing figures, even if that involves murder. As well as controlling the media, he also controls the edit. It is for Felix to determine who will be crowned the winner, taking home the one-million-pound prize, and who will be 'executed' from the show, with their lives destroyed forever!

Nearly every night on every major network, “unscripted” (but carefully crafted) “reality” TV shows routinely glorify retrograde stereotypes that most people would assume got left behind 35 years ago. In Reality Bites Back, media critic Jennifer L. Pozner aims a critical, analytical lens at a trend most people dismiss as harmless fluff. She deconstructs reality TV’s twisted fairytales to demonstrate that far from being simple “guilty pleasures,” these programs are actually guilty of fomenting gender-war ideology and significantly affecting the intellectual and political development of this generation’s young viewers. She lays out the cultural biases promoted by reality TV about gender, race, class, sexuality, and consumerism, and explores how those biases shape and reflect our cultural perceptions of who we are, what we’re valued for, and what we should view as “our place” in society. Smart and informative, Reality Bites Back arms readers with the tools they need to understand and challenge the stereotypes reality TV reinforces and, ultimately, to demand accountability from the corporations responsible for this contemporary cultural attack on three decades of feminist progress.

From the author of the Gemma Doyle trilogy and The Diviners series, this groundbreaking New York Times bestseller and winner of the Michael L. Printz Award for literary excellence is "smart, funny, and layered," raves Entertainment Weekly. All 16-year-old Cameron wants is to get through high school—and life in general—with a minimum of effort. It’s not a lot to ask. But that’s before he’s given some bad news: he’s sick and he’s going to die. Which totally sucks. Hope arrives in the winged form of Dulcie, a loopy punk angel/possible hallucination with a bad sugar habit. She tells Cam there is a cure—if he’s willing to go in search of it. With the help of a death-obsessed, video-gaming dwarf and a yard gnome, Cam sets off on the mother of all road trips through a twisted America . . . into the heart of what matters most. From acclaimed author Libba Bray comes a dark comedic journey that poses the questions: Why are we here? What is real? What makes microwave popcorn so good? Why must we die? And how do we really learn to live? "A hilarious and hallucinatory quest."—The New York Times "Sublimely surreal."—People "Libba Bray's fabulous new book will, with any justice, be a cult classic. The kind of book you take with you to college, in the hopes that your roommate will turn out to have packed their own copy, too. Reading it is like discovering an alternate version of The Phantom Tollbooth, where Holden Caulfield has hit Milo over the head and stolen his car, his token, and his tollbooth. There's adventure and tragedy here, a sprinkling of romance, musical interludes, a battle-ready yard gnome who's also a Norse God, and practically a chorus line of physicists. Which reminds me: will someone, someday, take Going Bovine and turn it into a musical, preferably a rock opera? I want the sound track, the program, the T-shirt, and front row tickets."—Kelly Link, author of Get in Trouble, finalist for the Pulitzer Prize

The bold and boundlessly original debut novel from the Oscar®-winning screenwriter of Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Synecdoche, New York. LONGLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE • “A dyspeptic satire that owes much to Kurt Vonnegut and Thomas Pynchon . . . propelled by Kaufman’s deep imagination, considerable writing ability and bull’s-eye wit."—The Washington Post “An astonishing creation . . . riotously funny . . . an exceptionally good [book].”—The New York Times Book Review • “Kaufman is a master of language . . . a sight to behold.”—NPR NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR AND MEN’S HEALTH B. Rosenberger Rosenberg, neurotic and underappreciated film critic (failed academic, filmmaker, paramour, shoe salesman who sleeps in a sock drawer), stumbles upon a hitherto unseen film made by an enigmatic outsider—a film he’s convinced will change his career trajectory and rock the world of cinema to its core. His hands on what is possibly the greatest movie ever made—a three-month-long stop-motion masterpiece that took its reclusive auteur ninety years to complete—B. knows that it is his mission to show it to the rest of humanity. The only problem: The film is destroyed, leaving him the sole witness to its inadvertently ephemeral genius. All that’s left of this work of art is a single frame from which B. must somehow attempt to recall the film that just might be the last great hope of civilization. Thus begins a mind-boggling journey through the hilarious nightmarescape of a psyche as lushly Kafkaesque as it is atrophied by the relentless spew of Twitter. Desperate to impose order on an increasingly nonsensical existence, trapped in a self-imposed prison of aspirational victimhood and degeneratively inclusive language, B. scrambles to re-create the lost masterwork while attempting to keep pace with an ever-fracturing culture of “likes” and arbitrary denunciations that are simultaneously his bête noire and his raison d’être. A searing indictment of the modern world, Antkind is a richly layered meditation on art, time, memory, identity, comedy, and the very nature of existence itself—the grain of truth at the heart of every joke.
