Delightful book about a princess in a story who comes out of her book and gets involved in the life of her reader.

Helpful Score: 1
An extremely original story in which the characters in a book have their own lives and more than one generation of humans are intertwined with them. I found it delightful, but I had to make an effort not to spoil it by pushing the logic of the various situations that arise. In the end, it is a satisfying story that leaves you with much the feeling you get after reading a good fairytale.

It was lovely reading this book, it brought back some of the ideas about books I had when I was younger.
