When Una Fairchild stumbles upon a mysterious book buried deep in the basement of her school library, she thinks nothing of opening the cover and diving in. But instead of paging through a regular novel, Una suddenly finds herself Written In to the land of Story - a world filled with Heroes and Villains and fairy-tale characters.
But not everything in Story is as magical as it seems. Una must figure out why she has been Written In - and fast - before anyone else discovers her secret. Together with her new friend Peter and a talking cat named Sam, Una digs deep into Story's shadowy past. She quickly realizes that she is tied to the world in ways she never could have imagined - and it might be up to her to save it.

This is really just the first half of the story. Nothing is resolved and the book ends right in the middle of the story.
The above being said I thought this book was decent but not great. I really enjoyed the idea of characters being written in (it was a like a simplified version of the Thursday Next series). I also enjoyed the idea of characters being type-cast and trained to be the sorts of characters they are assigned to be.
I thought our heroine was extremely abrasive and obnoxious. I also thought the initial description of her as a quiet loner did not at all fit how she acted in Story. There were a few contradictions like that throughout the story.
I also just got kind of bored with it all about halfway through. In the end, even though it ends mid-story, I really wasn't all that curious about what will happen to these characters. As a result, I probably won't read Story's End which ties up this duology.
Okay story about wandering into a fairy tale

Would you consider the audio edition of Storybound to be better than the print version?
I absolutely love this story. Fully. It is sweet and charming and playful throughout but with those important elements of intensity and drama as well. The idea is entertaining, and the execution is winsome.Some reviewers have complained that it is light on character development or is somewhat derivative (i.e., "It reminded me of Harry Potter," etc.). To these people I would say, (A) it's a *middle grade* novel and (B) it is deeply embedded in the fantasy genre. In other words, if you want a middle grade fantasy, then this fully delivers exactly what it should. If you were hoping for Moby Dick, this isn't it.Also, it's worth noting that the second half of this story (Story's End) is AWESOME! I felt the conclusion (and the journey toward it) to be deeply satisfying!SO FUN. An ideal MG Fantasy. & Part 2 even better!

I wasn't crazy about the reader, I think her voice is just too high for my liking,,and I like it when folks use different voices for characters. But that's just me. Overall cute story!
Great fairytale concept...
