Story Thieves by James Riley

I really wanted to like this book because what reader wouldn't want to be able to jump into their favourite story? 

Unfortunately, I had to force myself to keep going after each chapter. Even though the premise of the story is good, somehow I was really bored and annoyed while reading. It's a story for kids but since l also read other children/middle grade stories, it just seems that this story wasn't for me.

This was one hell of an adventure and it's only starting, I really liked the characters, their sense of humor and their bravery. The next book is on my list!

This is a very fun book, it's a book about books and fictional characters and it explores some interesting ideas. The characters all felt different from each other and they all had their own character developments and moments. I hope to see more charm in future books

This book wavered between 2.5 and 3 stars. Lots of really fun existential questions thst you dont usually find in kids' books. Tended to be a bit dry and drawn out through somr parts, but the creativity was fun.

maybe it was because I was dealing with personal stuff this month, but I had a hard time keeping up with everything in the plot and I kept getting confused about the characters and which "world" characters were occupying

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

OhmyGosh! This was an incredible book! I had so much fun listening to the audiobook! The plot was fast, fun, and fantastic. The characters loveable and funny, they made me care about them. I can't wait to start the next book in this series. Absolutely, the best book I've read this year so far!

this was my favorite book for a long time. it's a great book for elementary/middle schoolers and even one that i still enjoy today. the foreign concepts in this book really draw the reader in and bring them into an immersive world

Story Thieves was good. It wasn't my favorite and I was often a bit confused because of the POV switches every other chapter, but other than that, it was good. I loved the relationship between Kiel and Bethany and the ending was so unexpected. I'm kind of excited to read the next book.
