Story Thieves by James Riley

3.0

Owen is bored and wants an adventure, like his favorite character Kiel. Bethany is a half-fictional character that can go into books and be part of the story. Together, the two of them manage to cause a lot of fictional and real world problems and have to try and correct it. It is a fun idea and I think middle school students who like fantasy will enjoy the series. I felt parts moved a little slow, it was a little too long and I had a harder time investing in the characters. Kids who love to read will like seeing some of their favorite characters come to life. 5th grade and up.
