5.0 out of 5 stars Impressions of Inkheart, Oct 7 2007
This review is from: Inkheart (Paperback)
One rainy night, twelve year old Meggie's life changed forever when a stranger showed up at her door. She finds out that her father, Mo, when reading aloud can bring to life beings and objects. This revelation begins the wonderful adventure which is Inkheart. In its 534 pages, Meggie and her father must do their best to safe keep a book from the evil ruler Capricorn. To succeed, Meggie must also learn to master her own powers in order to right the wrongs that have been made. Their journey is difficult and filled with adventure.

When I read Inkheart, I was blown away by its creative and thrilling tale of good versus evil. I found Mo's talent fascinating and to learn that Meggie was to learn it also (as it says on the back of the book), I was absolutely intrigued. Meggie and her father are both very much alike. They are courageous, determined, and wise characters, and they would do anything to save each other. Although the theme "good vs. evil" has been done many times before, the author wrote about it in an extremely creative and suspenseful way.

Inkheart is all about books, their magic, and their importance to people. I really loved it because I adore books and understood the importance of books to Meggie and Mo. "Meggie took her books whenever she went away. They were her home when she was somewhere strange. They were familiar voices, friends that never quarreled with her, clever, powerful friends --daring and knowledgeable, tried and tested adventures who had traveled far and wide. Her books cheered her up when she was sad and kept her from being bored..." I love to read because it lets you leave the world and reality to explore a different dimension and live a different life. Books really let you experience things you can't face in your real life and it takes you away from problems you don't want to think about.

The message in the book was that books hold more power than we think.
Inkheart exceeded my expectations and was by far one of the most suspenseful and all around one of the best books I have ever read. I strongly recommend you to read this book. In fact, I dare you to read it aloud!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not a kid's book!, Oct 23 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Inkheart (Hardcover)
The heroine of this story may be a young adult, but this book isn't about her. This books is about the amazing idea that character's from books can come to life and it isn't always a good thing. Having read all 3 books by Jasper Fforde, who uses the brilliant idea of real people entering works of fiction and potentially changing the entire book - and absolutely loving his books, Inkheart's twist intrigued me.

This is a dark and suspenseful story, which definitely keeps the reader guessing. It isn't the type of book that has really been written before, or if it is? I haven't seen it, but I would certainly love to read more books like this. The only flaw that I can see about the book? Is that the Author didn't write the book Inkheart first and then write this books as a sequel to it. That is probably more Jasper Fforde's forte though, but I would have loved to read the "real" Inkheart before reading about the character's entering this world and creating mayhem and committing murder. I loved this book, and I would never have predicted the entire ending... that is a very good thing as too often books are neatly tied up for the Happy Ending.

Read this book and enjoy it. If you have not read the "Theif Lord" read that one as well. Cornelia Funke is a very talented writer and she isn't trying to be the next J.K. Rowling or Tolkien. She hasn't created an alternate fantasy world to enter, she has written about our world where surprising things can happen.

3.0 out of 5 stars Pretty Good....but not Amazing, Jun 29 2006
This review is from: Inkheart (Hardcover)
Cornelia Funke, i have to say, is a pretty good writer. However, the one thing i absolutely can't stand about her writing is that it is sometimes too descriptive. She always has to describe things in full detail. This is what makes her books somewhat boring.
This is all in Inkheart, her overpowering descriptions, but they are not as powerful, and makes her wrinting a little softer and easier to read. Howevewr, there is somewhat of a thing in ths book. It is all so repetitive!! they escaped, then got caught, they escaped again!!!then got caught again...THEY ESCAPED AGAIN!then got caught. this is basically all that happens the whole novel. However, I still like this book, becasue there is some added ideas, but mostly, this is what happens.
anyways, beyond this point, this novel is about a read-a-holic named Meggie, who lives with her father Mo. However, Mo has a secret that he has kept from Meggie ever since she was three: he can read characters out of books. One of the characters Mo read out plenty of years ago shows up at his door, one rainy night, and the story gets better from here. Although boring in many parts, it is still a pretty good fantasy novel.
I dont think you should buy this novel in hardcover, but definetly go to your local library and give it a try, or buy it in paperback format.
