Inkheart - Cornelia Funke

Title: Inkheart Author: Cornelia Funke Genre: Fantasy Rating: 9/10 # pages: 543 Date read: October, 2007

Summary: Meggie's father, Mo, has an wonderful and sometimes terrible ability. When he reads aloud from books, he brings the characters to life--literally. Mo discovered his power when Maggie was just a baby. He read so lyrically from the the book Inkheart, that several of the book's wicked characters ended up blinking and cursing on his cottage floor. Then Mo discovered something even worse--when he read Capricorn and his henchmen out of Inkheart, he accidentally read Meggie's mother in.

Review: A wonderful book and perfect for a bookworm like me. The main characters all adore books and reading, and their way of describing books makes me feel like Cornelia Funke knows exactly how I feel about books :) The plot is captivating too and I couldn't put the book down once I got properly into it (which took about 4-5 pages ;-) ).
