Inkheart

I know I'm a little bit slow on writing these reviews but just bear with me.I didn't have a lot of free time to read the book and  I'm reading a very thick book called Inkheart.Inkheart is a book written by Cornelia Funke and it was published in 2003.The book receive positve reviews from critics and writers.I'm still confused on why though.

The High and Low
.Eleanor is simply echanting
.The story feels grounded even with it's fantasy stories

.The story drags for too long
.Some characters didn't flesh out(I mean she could told more about Fenoglio,Farid or Darius).
.
Quick summary
Mortimer Folchart or Mo(Meggie calls her father that) is a bookbinder and he has the power to read things out of a book ( he cannot control what goes out or what dissappears). One day when he was reading a book called Inkheart Resa (his wife) got sucked in the book and 3 characters from the book got out.Capicorn,Basta,and Dustfinger he also read out Dustfinger per marten Gwin). 9 years had passed and now Meggie is 12 years old (she was 3 when it happened) One night Dust fingercame their house and warned Mo about Capicorn (of course Maggie was curious about DustFinger But since Mo didn't tell her anything about it so she didn't ask her father.After a couple of days Mo planned to stay at his aunt house to bind her books he says to Maggie but obviously Maggie suspect it something else. When...If you want to know what happen next you have to buy the book.

The Conclusion
Just so you know Inkheart isn't a bad book but it is definitely over hyped.The story was definitely well told, somepart of the story could have went to the cliche road but Cornelia Funke skillfully writes her way out but by doing that she drags the story too long that nobody actually cares.I mean some chapters felt pointless and I have to hope that there will be Elinor in the chapter to lighten things up but sadly Elinor was underplayed.The book did have it's momentum but it definitely gets bog down by the slow pacing.The ending was expected but it makes readers want to read the sequel I wouldn't mind reading the sequel but I really hope that the book is called Inkheart 2:The adventures of Elinor.Seriously if she was the main character I'm sure that everything would turn up alright.

Rating:6 out of 10
