This book was so fun to read!  The mystery elements of the books keep you entertained and wanting to read more.  There are also a lot of plot twists throughout the course of the book (again, preventing you from putting it down).  I also found it easy to relate to the characters in the book as they experienced many real world issues and the author did a good job of writing them as teens who actually acted like teens.

This book was a nice reading for those rainy autumn days. It's easy to read and not that hard for the mind but still pretty interesting. I love the idea of people jumping into books, it reminded me of "inkheart". Also, I loved that famous books were mentioned, because it reminded me of the time I read them. 
But I have to admit, that the story is pretty predictable for a long time until, in the end, a real tension builds up. Then the book is really interesting and you can't put it away. Until then, it might seem to be a little enlarged. 
It's a loveable book, if you are looking for something lighthearted.
