Life is boring when you live in the real world, instead of starring in your own book series. Owen knows that better than anyone, what with the real world's homework and chores. But everything changes the day Owen sees the impossible happen -- his classmate Bethany climb out of a book in the library. It turns out Bethany's half-fictional and has been searching every book she can find for her missing father, a fictional character. Bethany can't let anyone else learn her secret, so Owen makes her a deal: All she has to do is take him into a book in Owen's favorite Kiel Gnomenfoot series, and he'll never say a word. Besides, visiting the book might help Bethany find her father. Or it might just destroy the Kiel Gnomenfoot series, reveal Bethany's secret to the entire world, and force Owen to live out Kiel Gnomenfoot's final (very final) adventure.

This book was a lot of fun. Unique and yet, for anyone who grew up with their nose in a book, exactly what a reader always secretly wishes would happen...jumping, literally, into the story. A great middle grade read.
I liked the dual stories in both the fictional world and the real world where Bethany the half fictional character had to deal with a main character who'd come out of popular Harry Potteresque type series. I loved how the author definitely knows how to keep your attention no matter what your age and has engaging characters. Very interesting thought of what you would do if you could jump in your favorite book anytime. Would you be like Bethany before and stay in the background not disrupting the story or jump right in like Owen and want to become part of the story and meet your favorite characters. Also Charm is absolutely priceless. Loved her.
“After you, “ Charm said, gesturing for him to go first. “It's your spell, If you die in front of me, I promise to shoot whatever killed you really hard.
She definitely was a fun character i a fun action packed book.
