Publisher Description
For her first-ever YA novel, #1 New York Times best-selling author Jodi Picoult collaborates with her teenage daughter Samantha van Leer on an exhilarating work of cross-generational appeal. A story of romance, adventure, and humor, Between the Lines features high-schooler and social outsider Delilah, who discovers a charming fairy tale in the school library and can't resist turning to it again and again. But one day she finds the book has hidden depths-and that the story's handsome prince has somehow stepped from the page into her very own world.

"A great book !! I’ve been meaning to read it for a while now and recently found in my high school library. A good book to explore more crazy scenarios and not just sticking to one point of view or one story line. Plot twist had me like ??. "

Quotes

“A compulsively readable charmer. The teen dialogue and interior monologues feel authentic, while Picoult’s practiced hand balances humor with larger issues such as abandonment, hope, and existential quandaries related to fate and human nature. Both silhouette and pencil drawings abound; characters climb in and around the text to excellent effect. Younger readers and their parents will appreciate the gentle, wholesome romance, with nary a shred of paranormal action. The tender, positive tone and effective pacing that builds to a satisfying finish will inspire readers to pass the book to a friend—or reread it themselves.”
— Booklist -
“A clever YA romance about the magical relationship between a loner and her fictional ‘Prince Charming.’ Elements from Picoult’s other novels—alternating character viewpoints with distinguishing fonts, snappy chapter endings—are present, and the story is peppered with pop-culture references to The Hunger Games, the Kindle Fire, and the X-Men, as well as comic relief in the form of characters like a talking horse that thinks it has a weight problem. Readers…will be swept up by the romantic premise.”
— Publishers Weekly -
“In her first foray into teen fiction, Picoult and her coauthor daughter deliver an enjoyable, metafictive twist on the traditional teen-romance novel…Book lovers in particular are likely to get a kick out of the blurring of the lines between character and reader, fact and fiction…Fizzy fairy-tale fun.”
