About this listen

Amy Lennox doesn't know quite what to expect when she and her mother pick up and leave Germany for Scotland, heading to her mother's childhood home of Lennox House on the island of Stormsay.

Amy's grandmother, Lady Mairead, insists that Amy must read while she resides at Lennox House - but not in the usual way. It turns out that Amy is a book jumper, able to leap into a story and interact with the world inside. As thrilling as Amy's new power is, it also brings danger: someone is stealing from the books she visits, and that person may be after her life. Teaming up with fellow book jumper, Will, Amy vows to get to the bottom of the thefts - at whatever cost.

loved the ending and the rest of the book was ok. I prefer supernatural romance though.

the ending was really good

A fun self reflecting tail of a young woman's experience in a new world. The jumping from literature classics was a fun idea. The plot had some interesting leaps, but was overall a great tale.

A true page turner.

Creative idea. Not what I was expecting when I embarked on the reading journey. But I enjoyed the story. The author eloquently worded a magically story referencing classical novels.

This was such a delightful story to read. I’ve even told my daughter she should read it. Love the thought of jumping into books. The characters were cute and just the whole mystery of what was happening was fun to follow :)

What a wonderful story!

This is a very different story in a good way. Definitely an original idea. A fairytale for young readers but the themes are a little too mature for children. Some of the storylines are left unresolved. The ending was happy, I guess, but not what I hoped for. Mary Sarah is a favorite narrator and she does a fantastic job in the telling of this story. Imagery is rich. Mysteries galore. Some maudlin elements and definitely evil but goodness shines through.

Imaginative

The narrator is fantastic.
