About Reid Mockery

My Story

Reid Mockery is the literary world's answer to a stand-up comedian with a pen, delighting readers with razor-sharp spoofs of mega-hits like Fifty Shades of Grey, Divergent, and The Fault in Our Stars . Dubbed the "Scary Movie of Books," she has carved a niche as Amazon's top-selling parody author since her rise to fame in 2009.
Her works, —are known for their fast-paced, affordable, and hilariously addictive narratives . Mockery's parodies are not just humorous; they're a masterclass in satirical storytelling, offering readers a well-aimed jab at pop culture.
"People who don’t like parody books often form a deep, almost sacred bond with the original work—like it’s their emotional support novel. They don’t want to see it mocked, twisted, or turned into a joke because to them, it’s not just a story—it’s a personal experience, a cherished escape, maybe even part of their identity. So when a parody comes along poking fun at their beloved characters or flipping serious scenes into absurdity, it can feel like a betrayal. It’s not that they lack a sense of humor; it’s that they see parody as an intrusion on something they hold close, like someone spray-painting their favorite adult memory with glitter cannon and fart jokes.
"I get it...but...I don't care. I write these books for fun and I crack myself up."
"Some people say I am AI. I assure I am not. AI is good at some things that authors use. Scene descriptions, action, feelings...but AI sucks at humor and dialogue. Like or not, this is all me."
Living anonymously in Tennessee, Reid continues to hunt down the next bestselling genre in need of a good roast, solidifying her status as the go-to author for those seeking a good laugh and a clever twist on their favorite reads.
