Entitled is a love letter to books, travel and the people we meet along the way.

Life isn't easy when you're a book.

This charming, humorous, warm-hearted novel captures the extraordinary adventures of an extraordinary book.

Entitled is told from the perspective of a book as it reluctantly travels from San Francisco to Paris, London and New York City in search of a home.

As it is read, misplaced, loaned and abandoned, our book, like its Readers, discovers love and heartbreak, loneliness and friendship, and ultimately becomes the author of its own journey.

In the end, Entitled reveals the pull between the story we are born with and the one we wish to create for ourselves.

Industry Reviews

STARRED REVIEW

Cookie Boyle has written a smart, funny, and heartfelt novel that captures the unexpected adventures in the life of a book.

Boyle's charmingly anthropomorphized literary characters present astute and whimsical observations...the conversations are bright and engaging, and border notes provide an artful touch of commentary from the Readers who share the Book's odyssey.

Told from its unique perspective, this is an imaginative, well-written narrative. For bibliophiles looking for a lighthearted, clever, and fun read, Entitled proves a perfect offering.

- BlueInk Review

A unique and playful work about books that nicely pushes the limits of characterization.

- Kirkus Reviews

Take the toys out of Toy Story and replace them with books. Brilliant! Masterfully written by an experienced screen writer. Experience the world through the eyes of a book. Funny. Clever. I've fallen in love with this book in a whole new way.

- CJ (@one.chapteratatime)

We always come across a book that is absolutely awesome and remarkable in all aspects and we give it 5 stars. But this book tops that benchmark as well. I wish I could give it 10 stars.
