This is an okay read for me. I loved the little illustrations in the book. I enjoy the bookish-ness of this book and how it mentions books everyone has read or heard of. I think my niece would really enjoy this book and if you like middle grade then this is a good book for you.
Overall I enjoyed it.

-4 stars. i'd love a world where i could bookwander.
"people are good at not noticing things that don't affect them. how do you think we've hidden a magical library here for decades?"
summary: tilly is a bookwanderer, she can travel inside books and converse with characters. but the fairy tales have started going wonky, twisting, mixing up, or outright disappearing. book magic is leaking. and the underlibrary has elected a new librarian who wants to lock up all the books and have everyone tracked so no one can bookwander without permission. the adults dont seem to be doing anything so its up to tilly and oskar to figure out whats going on.

Cute book, just realised I wasn’t that invested in reading the whole series.
I feel like I need to take a good five minutes to just talk about how stunning this naked hardcover is. I don't think I have ever enjoyed a naked cover as much as I have with this series. If you're going to pick up a book based purely on the cover then it's going to be this one because it is just stunning. Seriously. Just go and look at it. Also - the illustrations within the book are just as amazing... seriously go look at them!!
I am so glad to finally be back with Tilly and Oskar and the book wandering. This series is just so delightful and makes me wish I could sink into the pages just as Tilly does and meet some of my favourite characters. Anna just brings the world completely to life and you feel like you're there with them traipsing around the book shops and falling into the pages of books and going on adventures.
I enjoyed this more than the first one and I feel that as the story goes on it just gets better; you become more immersed in the plot, the world, the characters and it is just enjoyable. I would honestly recommend this to anyone of all ages. Anna is brilliant at building the world around you and slotting in some of your favourite fairytale characters with a slight twist; Red Riding Hood who takes an axe to the wolf, and Rapunzel who isn't about to let some weird men climb her hair. I loved Rapunzel, honestly she just stood out in this book so much for me, she was such a delight!
I love Oskar and Tilly's relationship and love that he is a book wanderer too! It makes perfect sense with what happened in the first book and I just love how the relationship develops and cements with them.
I am a bit concerned about how gullible some of the adults are in this world... but they do say kids have the best imagination.
Already pre-ordered the next one!! READ THIS.
