This is a cute and light-hearted young adult romance that blurs* the line between fantasy* and reality. Meet Oliver, a prince literally taken from the pages of a fairy tale and transported into the real world. Meet Delilah, the girl who wished Oliver into being. It’s a miracle that seems perfect at first. Sure, Oliver doesn’t know that you shouldn’t try to open your locker with a dagger* or that there’s no such thing as “the ruler” of the local mall. But he also looks at Delilah as if she’s the only girl in the world—the only girl in any world—and Delilah can’t help feeling that being with him is a dream come to life. But not every story can have a happy ending because the book wants Oliver back. And it will turn both worlds upside down to get him. Oliver and Delilah will have to decide what — and who — they’re willing to risk for love and what it really means for a fairy tale to come true. The book is written in first person point of view, from three different characters. The story is broken down into separate chapters, depending on who is narrating* at the time. Jodi Picoult, the author of 22 novels, co-wrote the book with her daughter Samantha van Leer. Full of humor and witty commentary* about life, the book is a stand-alone novel as well as the companion to the authors’ No. 1 bestseller “Between the Lines.” Fans of Sarah Dessen and Meg Cabot are sure to appreciate this novel about love, romance, and happily-ever-afters. The book is available on amazon.com.(SD-Agencies) |
