Description
When Rigby dies, she wakes up on a train talking to…angels? They offer her a deal. No, she can’t go back to her life, but if she travels to her favorite book (yes, those people exist too!) and saves Wick, the villain, she can remain there as a second chance. Ecstatic at the opportunity and hopeful for her chances, she gets off the train and heads to Thornwell. When Wick finds the book and learns the truth – about Rigby’s second chance, his life stuck in a story, his past – he tears the book in half, stopping their world and opening them up to the Vices, the physical representation of the Seven Deadly Sins. Their world is literally at stake, but their secrets and longings may hasten them to the end of everything.
Reminiscent of Between the Lines by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer, this story takes book worlds to a darker place. The angels are opposing yet entertaining forces, the characters charming, and the story imaginative, creative, and original. Jumping worlds and a narrator to love make this a must-read for those who enjoy alternate fairy tales and the idea that our favorite books may exist on another plane.
