I loved this book because it is a book about books, which is a favorite theme of mine. The characters were diverse, each with their own specific issue/problem that they were facing. The way their stories diverged and came together by the end was touching and satisfying.

I …more was very impressed with how the author had "a story within a story" going on throughout the book. The beloved fictional children's series portrayed in this novel was detailed and its characters themselves flesh out, similar in character to the world J.K. Rowling created in her Harry Potter series.

What touched my heart about this novel was the concept of memories. I don't want to give away too much…so I will close by encouraging everyone to read this great book. You will fall in love with one of the main protagonists, Peanut, and root for her dream to come true! (less)
