Inkheart
by Cornelia Funke
THE BEST BOOK EVER !!!!! (6/6/2010)
I would recommend this book called the “INKHEART” by Cornelia Funke to all because the story plot and descriptions are very wonderfully written. There are many different mysterious adventures in the story and the characters are “well-developed” in the sense of humorous characters, etc. Even before I started reading this book and by just looking at the cover page, it was already tempting me to borrow it from the library and read it. Especially for those who loved reading mysterious tales or adventure stories, I would guarantee that once you start reading it, you would have troubles getting yourself to put it down. The story is talking about this girl named Meggie who lived alone with her father who is a bookbinder. However, her father has a deep secret and that is he possesses an extraordinary magical power. On one cruel night, Meggie's father reads a book called Inkheart aloud, when an evil ruler named Capricorn escapes the boundaries of fiction and lands in their living room. Suddenly, the two are plunged into the kind of adventure Meggie has only encountered in fiction, and they must somehow learn to harness the magic they were reading about to change the course of the story before it ruins their lives forever. The author chose to start every chapter with a quote from a book and I find that a very interesting way of starting a story. You will never guess what will be happening next and how the story will end. You will have to read it because the story has a deeper meaning into it. This has to be the best book I have ever read. I love how it talks about all the characters and just by reading the story they will seem like your best friend that you have known from birth. It gives great detail like you are there in the book. You always wonder what will happen next, so you just want to keep reading and reading. After reading INKHEART, you will be in love with the book and will move on to read INKSPELL, INKDEATH and other books written by the author like DRAGON RIDER or IGRAINE THE BRAVE.
