What starts as a harmless lunchtime joke spirals into the most chaotic adventure of Alex Thompson's high school life. When Alex quips about forming a "sandwich-worshipping club," their friends Mia and Jordan laugh it off-but soon, the entire school is bowing to the "Sandwich Sovereign." Memes go viral, "holy relics" like a squished PB&J become sacred, and rival factions erupt in mayo-vs.-mustard wars, burger rebellions, and even fake miracles.

As the accidental cult leader, Alex must navigate peer pressure, skeptical teachers, and a growing schism that threatens to turn fun into frenzy. Can they dismantle the devotion before it consumes everything-or will they discover that a little absurdity can lead to real community, charity, and self-discovery?

Hilarious, heartfelt, and utterly relatable, Oops! I Started a Cult is a YA comedy about the perils of popularity and the power of a perfect sandwich. Perfect for fans of The Good Place and Derry Girls.
