The Book Jumper
by Mechthild Gläser
hitting shelves January 3rd, 2017
from Feiwel & Friends
A thrilling YA adventure about a fifteen-year-old girl with an unexpected ability—she can jump inside books and experience their stories firsthand.
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 exciting 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.

My thoughts: Ah, this sounds so fun! What some of us wouldn't give to have this power, aye?? And while this cover isn't completely final, I'm hoping they don't stray too far from this design because I love this whimsical concept!!
What book are you eagerly anticipating this week?
