This book rocked so much I couldn't put it down after I started reading it... I got it from the library so I had to return it and re-borrow it once :) anyways I loved the book!!!!

Inkheart has one of the best beginnings ive ever read. I could just read the 1st chapter over and over again. It automatically sets the mood and makes u feel like you're part of the story. I love it that the characters are all bookworms, like me! Unfortunately, I hated the ending. Sorry, but it was bad! When I finished I was like, oka-ay. I was so disappointed. Overall though, it was a good read. (PS I was 15 when i read it, w/c I feel was slightly too old for it)

Inkheart was an fabulous book that captured my mind in a web of brilliantly done charicters and a plot that couldent make me put the book down! The book literally came to life as I was reading. I would recomend this book to anyone who has a BIG enough imagination to handle it.

This is one of the best books I have ever read. It is about two young boys that runaway to Venice and have fantastic adventures. The author (Cornelia Funke) wrote this book as if it was from the point of a little boy. I think that The Thief Lord is a great book and you should read it.

I found the idea of characters coming off the pages very unique. It was a little scary and dark at some points, but that was good. I loved it and read it quickly, I couldn' t put it down. It expands your imagination so much. The ending wasn't the usual kind you'd expect, but it did have good closure I thought. There were plenty of lessons learned in it, which is always good for kids stories.

My daughter asked for Inkheart for Christmas. She is 10. She devoured it in record time and begged me to read it. I did and I loved it. What a wonderful premise and what clearly defined characters as big, no, bigger than life. I loved that the characters were dark and scary. I loved that their was not a happy, tied-up-in-a-bow, perfect ending. Fenoglio rocks!
