Happy Monday!

Goodreads Monday is a weekly meme where you choose a random book from your Goodreads TBR and show it off. This meme is hosted by Budget Tales Book Blog. I found this (and stole it 😉) from  Yolanda’s Past Midnight. Go check her out and give her a follow!

This weekly meme should just be called: Nail Susan To The Literary Cross Monday.

Title: The Unlikely Escape of Uriah Heep

Author: H.G. Parry

Pages: 496

Publication Date: January 23, 2019

The ultimate book-lover’s fantasy, featuring a young scholar with the power to bring literary characters into the world, for fans of The Magicians, Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore, and The Invisible Library.


For his entire life, Charley Sutherland has concealed a magical ability he can’t quite control: he can bring characters from books into the real world. His older brother, Rob — a young lawyer with a normal house, a normal fiancee, and an utterly normal life — hopes that this strange family secret will disappear with disuse and he will be discharged from his life’s duty of protecting Charley and the real world from each other. But then, literary characters start causing trouble in their city, making threats about destroying the world… and for once, it isn’t Charley’s doing.
There’s someone else who shares his powers. It’s up to Charley and a reluctant Rob to stop them before these characters tear apart the fabric of reality.
