I love big books and this one was no exception. I love fantasy and fiction. I HIGHLY recommend this lovely book. It made me ponder if it was true and you could get stuff out of a book.

It’s about a girl named Meggie, her father Mo. At first Meggie and her father were living a quiet live, when one night a man called Dustbringer came to their house, to talk with her father, the next day, the three of them went to Meggie’s aunt Elinor’s house. Then one day, a group of Capricorn’s men went to find Mo and a book called the Inkheart, only then when they were caught by Capricorn, her father then told her the story of the Inkheart.

The book is amazing, imagine reading your favorite book out loud to somene and the characters just pop out in exchange for something in your world. This is what happened to meggie the character. when she was young her father accadentally did it to her mother. This is just an amazing book and i think alot of people would like it

This has been a great read so far and if you like some mystery and action you will love this book (If the book and movies ending are the same then there is a happy ending). I first saw the movie about a year ago and I thought it was great than about a week ago I saw the book and I had to read it!

Amazing read!so glad I found this in the library
