i <3 inkheart!
Personally, I really don't 'like' reading. For school ovr the summer we had to pick a fantasy book and i went to the library looking for the shortest book possible. i knew that a lot of ppl had reccommended (gosh thts hard to spell!) it to me and have said it is great, but it was 534 pages! u have got to be kidding me! i couldn't find n e othr gd book so i picked it up, read the inside and basically fell in love with it. it just kept getting better. i read 40 pages each day even though i am busy and now i have to write a persuasive essay on it. the only trouble is i am having a little bit of trouble figuring out 3 reasons for y i should reccomend it. i have action packed and suspenseful and i am thinking of using imaginative but who knows!!!!! well yeah thts my story!

i abosolutely LOVED inkheart. my fave character is dustfinger as he (in my opinion) had the most awesome attitude in he world...as it is kind of my attitude *grins sheepishly*.

anyway. cornelia funke is a great writer, but i was bawling my eyes out when i read the ending of inkspell.

I recommend it to ppl ova 10 yrs old and give it 10/10

Good Book Unclear Time Frame
I really am enjoying reading Inkheart my only problem is the timeframe is very unclear the whole story seems to be technology deprived yet Mo has a cellular phone and I don't think there is one person in the world who is still a book binder in the 21st century! Well it is only my opinion! But Cornelia Funke did an exceptional job writing a really good fantasy fiction book!!

GAAAAAH!
Inkheart is the best book I have ever read. I will repeat Inkheart is the best book I have ever read. Now I will move on, this masterpeice of a book is peiced together in a very poetic way. Hehe, I wish I could be read into it. I have read it seven going on eight times and each time it has been the best book I have ever read. The characters are fantastic! My favorite by a looooooooooong shot is Dustfinger, friend of fire. He is my life! If there's one thing you should do before you die, it's read Inkheart. I am soooo crazy about this book. Corneilia Funke uses awesome simlies to express how the characters are feeling and the main plot of the book is so phenominal. This book about books will be a great book for any book lover! Especially me!
