Publisher's summary

Set in an ethereal bookstore where all of the employees are fictional characters who have yet to be written, and must live a purgatory-like existence tending to the literary canon until their author shows up to claim them, “Blank Paige” follows Paige—an intelligent young woman who is the only character to arrive in the Store without any knowledge of her genre or story. Paige’s appearance sends the world of the Bookstore into a tailspin—causing the characters to question how much free will they have over their own lives, and threatening to destroy the very fabric of imagination. In this world, characters are far more complex than their archetypes would imply, and nothing is as black and white as it appears.

From best-selling author and Broadway artist Ashley Griffin, “Blank Paige” is a meta, genre bending exploration of fate versus free will and the power of stories.

Brilliant New Classic

I'll just lay this out there...I didn't know YA Books could be like this anymore... this is a new classic, and absolutely utterly original. "Blank Paige" is a beautiful, magical, unique story about what it's like to not belong and what it means to find yourself - set against the backdrop of literature itself. It has a vibrant, beating heart at its center that I find missing from the vast majority of books I read. Like Paige, this book is unabashedly ITSELF - not concerned about tropes it needs to follow or story elements it needs to hit. Instead its concern is telling a story of substance and meaning. I was incredibly moved by this book and think it's a perfect story for young people and adults alike. I read a review that said it's a "Spiritual Successor to 'The NeverEnding Story'" and that "Ms. Griffin might be the real life Childlike Empress"... you know, I wouldn't be at all surprised. RUN don't walk to get this book (and it's even better hearing this wonderful vocal performance!)
