Even for adult readers, the trajectory remains a constant surprise and this does not fall back on plot devices or tropes to carry it along, which could still remain wonderful for a younger age range unused to them.
Whilst not becoming entirely terrifying, due to the young age range this was aimed towards, it did still entertain, intrigue, and consist of some gasp-out-loud moments.Īgain, as in book one, what most impressed me with this book was just how incredibly intricate the plot was. These stories were far darker in tone, than those previously entered into, and the trajectory of the plot mirrored it. Here, the world of the Brothers Grimm was explored. It was such fun getting to envisage these infamous characters react to new environments and experiences. In the previous book, a variety of classic stories were entered into. I loved that the intricacies of this ability, as well as the regulations surrounding it, were further explored here as it allowed for a deeper understanding for this hidden network of individuals to be formed, as well as to make the magical prospect appear even more potentially realistic. The book wandering abilities were focused on for much of the narrative and I feel that no book lover could fail to be captivated by the notion. I am so glad that its predecessor followed in the former's magical and captivating footsteps. I read the first series instalment right at the beginning of the year and, nine months later, it still remains one of my favourite reads from the year. Along with best friend and fellow book wanderer, Oskar, she finds herself on more madcap adventures, unearths more mysteries to solve, and dives deep into the heart of numerous other stories as she learns more about her abilities and who exactly she is growing up to be. Tilly ventures far from her grandparents English book store and into the hidden passageways of the French Underlibrary.
This is the second instalment in the Pages and Co.
