A review by sarah_kurtz
Tilly and the Bookwanderers by Anna James

4.0

1. Living in a bookstore.
2. The characters of your book come alive(ish).
3. A few side quests and best friend that is willing to go along for the ride. 

I am *HERE* for this book. 

In this book we're following Tilly, who lives with her grandparents at the Bookstore they own. One day, she starts seeing some characters from her favorite novels showing up in the store, or so she thinks, because she's seeing characters talking to her grandparents as well.  And then, one of them sucks her and her best friend into a story and suddenly she's learning she's a "book-wanderer".
We follow Tilly along as she comes to terms with what she is and WHO she is. And the ending was absolutely heartwarming. 

This book immediately brought me back to childhood and made me remember why I loved reading so much. It is literally the ability to just get lost in a story and go wherever your heart desires. 

I highly, highly recommend this to anyone, but especially if you have a kiddo that enjoys reading. I am very much looking forward to continuing along in the series to see what else Tilly can get herself into!
