A brilliantly romantic story of love across a divide in this entertaining and also thought-provoking story about stories, characters and readers . . . Funny, touching and clever, teens will love this unusual love story. -- www.lovereading4kids.co.uk
In her first foray into teen fiction, Picoult and her co-author daughter deliver an enjoyable, metafictive twist on the traditional teen-romance novel . . .

Prolific and bestselling author Picoult teams up with her teenage daughter to pen a clever YA romance * Publishers Weekly *
The book is instantly magical, transporting the reader into a world where fiction is reality and the divide between reader and book has been crossed. BETWEEN THE LINES will have you guessing to the very end and devouring each page at great speed. With gorgeous illustrations dotted around the pages, it is the kind of book you can escape into, just like Delilah. A delight. -- Novelicious
'Beautifully illustrated with captivating, detailed drawings. It's quite easy to imagine one of them coming to life, just as it did in the story.... The story is humorous and exciting with lots of unpredictable plot twists' -- The Book Bag
'A great contribution to the ever versatile YA fiction genre... A follow-up to [Picoult and van Leer's] 2012 collaboration Between the Lines, Off the Page also stands alone perfectly... It's fair to say this, not so young, adult was enthralled to the end and only left me wishing that I had the imagination to come up with such a brilliant formula for a story' * Press Association *
[The] central conceit remains fascinating in a witty fairy tale * Independent *
