Ok, where to start?

I think this is Sophie's first book.. and can I just say, YOU WOULD NOT KNOW...

FUCKING AWESOME READ!!!!!!!!

I really didn't know what to expect, the blurb sounded interesting so I went and bought it.

This is a brilliantly created set of characters. Each of them (and there are more than two mains), has a distinct personality, has a great dialogue, and really mesh's well with the other characters.

The plot whilst not original in context, is to me, original in the story telling. I More...

the first half of the book, set in the real world, is really good -- well paced, well scripted, believable. The second half, set in the fantasy world, is a completely different case: way too much happens in a very short time, with little by way of description, set-up or follow through. One of the great joys of fantasy is that the descriptions and action go on for hundreds of pages. there are very few slim fantasy novels, and this one shoved almost a trilogy's worth of action into 40 or so pages.

A fantastic book written really well. I am really surprised this is the only story that Sophie Robbins has published, she is bound to have at least a couple more that she could give us!

I'm a massive fantasy fan and particularly the fairy tale sort, so this book had me excited and I was intrigued by the twist of the female Prince Charming. On that particular point I have to say that Sophie's writing really portrayed the perfect nervous teenage 'i'm not sure about this' emotions while also making More...

In theory I wouldn't enjoy this book. It's a relationship driven, romantic fairy tale which features and is probably aimed at young adults. In fact, it's exactly the genre I wouldn't read. However, it was one of the Goodreads Christmas Gifts, donated by authors - thank you Sophie, you did me a favour! It was beautifully written and the author engages the reader in a remarkable way. The story is interesting, the pace is sustained and the end is quite exciting. Even those of us long out of our you More...

A Hole in the World is not just a charming story but an inspiring example for us all - its writer, Sophie Robbins, is only eighteen and has already topped the best seller chart for her genre, (Gay and Lesbian Kindle books.)

The story is basically a fairy tale with a modern twist. The protagonist, Bianca, rescues a Princess from another world and, as is often the case in a good romantic story, is the last to notice that she's fallen in love. However, it looks as though Bianca may have left it too More...

What a beauty of a book. You might read the blurb and think "Pah, a fairytale" but what a fairytale ! And it's not just for kids !

I guess teens will have no problems identifying themselves to the characters, who have great interaction between each other, and transform this story into a wonderful story of love and friendship. Everyone would envy Bianca for having friends like hers.

I'm well grown up now. I don't really do young adults usually. Yet this story made me really nostalgic of what it wa More...

this book started off a bit slow for me, but as soon as you meet our 'prince charming' this story just took off. i found myself laughing and smiling the entire way through.
i will be looking for more books from this author.
i definitely recommend this book to everyone.

A teenage girl crawls through a hole in a wall only to find a princess who needs rescuing. It started out good--the our-world part is well-done, but the fantasy world seemed thin and I found myself skimming by the end.

I completely understood why she left, I would have too. The pairing was nice &. I also Loved the storyline and the awesome friends Bianca apparently has. Total sucker for happy endings! This book delivered!

This is not my normal read, and I have a feeling that a slightly geeky 30something Man is not really the target audience.

Despite this I found it really compelling and a great read. There were twists and turns that kept me coming back for more.

A very good book that I would definitely recommend to others :)

Very cute and very sweet. Admittedly, I found the villains shallow, but as they were fairy-tale villains that seemed alright. All in all, this was a fun book and I'll be looking foward to Sophie's next work.

I love this fairy tale. All the classic elements: princess, prince charming, monsters, even a troll. So what's different? Well, it's 2010 for a start.

A story with real heart.

Well written lovely tale of friendship, full of adventure & well worth reading. I loved it!

Really enjoyed this book. The characters were great and there was stuff that made me laugh. The characters were fun to read and I enjoyed the romance. The other world was interesting but I wish there had been more on it. I did like the way they stayed in the princesses world at the end as it seemed to work.

Did not love the writing. Lovely storyline, a modern day play on the traditional fairy tale. Instead of a prince rescuing a princess, a girl and a princess rescue each other. However, it was written choppily, and at a low level. Love the lesbian tale, not a fan of the writing.
