Why I Picked ItIf you can't already tell, I absolutely love Jodi Picoult's writing. So when I saw this bright book featured in the YA section at the library, I just had to pick it up. And oh my goodness, I was right. As soon as I opened it, I didn't want to put it down. Unfortunately, we were also coming to the tail-end of musical rehearsals, so I didn't have a ton of time to read it until that was over. But it still was a great read that I am so thankful I saw on that library shelf! SummaryDelilah and Oliver are in love. The only problem was that Oliver was a prince from a fairytale. Literally. So they had to (before this book) find a way to pull him out of the story so they could be together. Everything is perfect, including their love. Except that the book needs to go back to the way it is written, including having Oliver be the main character. So throughout this book, Oliver, Delilah, and Edgar, the author's son who agreed to switch places with Oliver in the book, have to find a way to keep Oliver on the outside and Edgar on the inside without letting the book fall apart. Delilah and Oliver learn that fairytale romances are not always picture perfect. Edgar learns to appreciate the things he has. And together they have to overcome the many unseen problems they come across What I Liked
What I didn't LIkeReally, there is not much at all that I didn't like. I can't think of anything right now! Overall Impression 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟5 stars all the way. I loved the setting, characters, conflicts and resolutions, everything. It was a bit predictable, but at the same time I kept second guessing myself, and a few times I turned out to be wrong. Picoult and her daughter (Samantha Van Leer) did a wonderful job with this book, and I really need to read the companion book now (Between the Lines) because I just loved this one.
