A wild and crazy ride, looking at fandom, reality vs. expectation, and being your authentic self. It's more than a little over the top at times, but thoroughly enjoyable.

A fun story about fandom and misfits and friendship. The characters and the story were a little over the top but loveable and enjoyable. A book that was fun to read, didn't take itself too seriously but also had important points to make.

Marcia Suffer is not exactly the hero we all need. She's a vigilante - and a serial killer. But she kills pedophiles and other really nasty types. Oh, and she's a character on a very popular TV show of the same name. She's played by Roxy DeVine, a thoroughly conceited and unpleasant person whose enemy, creator of the show, is just as nasty as Roxy is.

But the fans don't know that. And one group of fans is about to meet their idol. Sadly - or is it hilariously - things don't go according to plan. That's when things really get crazy.

I enjoyed this book. I started it when my husband was in the hospital and it totally grabbed my interest. I finished it the next day. I would definitely recommend it for anyone who is a fan or is into fan culture.

I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review; however, my opinions remain my own. ( )

Wow! What a wild ride this story took me on. This novel follows a band of misfit superfans as they attempt to make a connection with the famous Roxy DeVine, who is a walking nightmare in super red Louboutins.

As we go through the story, we get to know more about all of the characters, their lives, their pasts, and the reasons they are the way they are today. Their ambitions know no limits and we see the dark reality of what people will do to control the narrative.

We have characters included from all different backgrounds: varying race, LGBTQ , education, wealth, developmental disorders- which allows us to see that A.C. Sloan is an ally of many.

When anti-bully Theo, her gay best friend Sam, her autistic sister Pris, and their wild and wacky Aunt Dotty win a viewing party with the star of their favorite show Suffer! they cannot believe their luck.

However, when things go wildly wrong- Theo finds herself making decisions she never would have thought herself capable of. With threats looming over her head of losing not only her home, but her sister as well as her freedom, Theo has to make the right choices to ensure nobody gets hurt or imprisoned.

Laugh out loud funny, edgy, and downright creative; Suffer! was a highly enjoyable read. Sloan has the depth and skill to really pull you into a story and see the bigger picture. ( )
