Between the Lines Kindle by Jodi Picou

I first read  Between the Lines in July of 2012. You can find that review HERE.
What I found the most interesting is that  this time around I ended up enjoying this book.
In fact I loved it! It's interesting how time can change your perception on things.

Between the Lines is a sweet and charming fairy tale that takes place both inside and outside of a book. I know that sounds confusing but bear with me. There is the main character Delilah who is a teen girl that has a fondness for a fairy tale book called, "Between the Lines".  This book is about a Prince who saves a Princess, gets married and has a happily ever after. What is interesting is that when this book isn't being read the characters come to "life" and live their lives within the pages of the book until it's time to resume their spot when the book is  opened to be read.

 Delilah reads this book  over and over again and then one day she notices a change in the book and then .. suddenly the main character in the fairy tale, Prince Oliver starts talking to her.

Oliver and Delilah find peace and comfort in one another and then attraction. Oliver wants nothing more than to live outside of the book and in Delilah's world. Together Delilah and Oliver attempt to find a way to pull Oliver out of the book and into her world.

The rest of the cast of character's are fascinating, in particular the ones in the book (Oliver and his cast). The voice of Delilah and Oliver are delightful, refreshing and reminiscent of young love and youth. This is an engaging and fun book.
