“Take a sixty-page illustrated storybook full of characters and add four talented narrators, and you get a great romance for young teens. Suzy Jackson’s Delilah is the heroine who pulls Prince Oliver, the love of her life, from the storybook he appears in to become her real-life boyfriend. Each of the narrators takes a chapter at a time, handling the primary role as well as the supporting characters’ voices. While this approach sometimes sounds discordant, as the secondary character voices change, overall, it works rather well. All the voices are well developed, and each narrator’s pacing and timing are excellent. This is a sequel to Between the Lines but works fine as a stand-alone.”
