A review by court_of_stars
Off the Page by Jodi Picoult
3.0
I've never been a huge Jodi Picoult fan; however, I received "Between the Lines" a few years ago from my aunt, a book that was written by Picoult and her daughter Samantha Van Leer, and I was instantaneously taken into a uniquely magical story that I never expected. So, when I came across "Off the Page", the companion/sequel to "Between the Lines" I just had to get it (thank you, local library!).
Although an utterly delightful book, the story did not live up to the luster of its original story line. There were several topics and scenes that fell into cliche-ville which took me out of the story and back into reality.
Picoult and Van Leer have certainly left the door open for a third book in the series (ie: The College Years and resolutions to a couple that got left hanging. And maybe even a not-so-princess princess that deserves more of a story). If they write it, I will read it.
It's an easy read. If this book interests you, definitely read the first in the series (Between the Lines) otherwise you will be completely lost.
Happy Reading!
