A comedy about a group of book lovers who literally lose the plot.

Norma Jacobs is your average accountant, running a book club on Facebook and living quietly with her gamer boyfriend in London. Except for the part where she's being threatened by a deranged author and questioned by the police about attempted murder. All just as she's started a new job as the only forty-two-year-old intern in the history of publishing.

Harry Shields is a crime writer desperate to hit the big time when a negative review of his latest book on Norma's page results in him having a spectacular public meltdown. He gets cancelled, his events get cancelled, and before you can say 'author behaving badly', he's plotting revenge and stalking his nemesis.

By the time Harry's gone viral, and Norma's given up trying to stop him, the online book club has over a hundred thousand rowdy members, and the comments section is a (literal) riot. Entertaining until one member ends up in a coma.

A savagely funny satire about online media and cancel culture, for everyone who thinks books are harmless.
