Bookroo's summary

Tilly Pages and her friend Oskar venture to the Library of Congress, seeking the mysterious Archivists to restore balance to the bookwandering world. As books vanish and stories fade, Tilly faces a perilous challenge: stories are pulling her in, threatening to erase bookwandering forever. With cryptic clues and unexpected allies, can Tilly unravel the mystery and save the stories she loves? Dive into a world where fiction and reality blur, and the fate of imagination hangs in the balance.

From the publisher

The third magical bookwandering adventure in the nationally bestselling Pages & Co. series, featuring Tilly Pages as she journeys to Washington, DC, to wander inside the books at the Library of Congress. Perfect for fans of Inkheart and The Land of Stories. Tilly and Oskar embark on an impromptu trip to the Library of Congress in Washington, DC, in search of an elusive group of bookwanderers called the Archivists, who they believe are the key to restoring the balance and saving the British Underlibrary. Along the way, the friends realize that something strange is happening in the world of bookwandering: books are disappearing, people are forgetting their favorite stories, and stories are trying to drag Tilly into them. With a mysterious set of clues and some surprising new faces, Tilly and Oskar will need the help of some of their dearest fictional friends to be able to solve the mystery . . . and save bookwandering forever.
