Inkheart

There is this book that I have fallen in love with and I am not being funny. Inkheart is like the best I have ever read. The author is Cornelia Funke and she is the most amazing writer ever. The words she chooses and the diction she comes up with brings the book to life. This is so ironic because in the story, there is this character named Mortimer and his daughter Meggie who live in a suburb. Mo loves to read books and his daughter has followed in her father's footsteps as well. However there is something magical about Mortimer; he can bring words to life. Now this may sound weird but if he were to read a sentence in a book it would actually come to life. Meggie doesn't know this until one night a mysterious man comes knocking at her door. Her father answers the door and this mysterious man starts talking to Mortimer privately. Meggie listens in on the conversation and we are also informed of the conversation. Now I am not going to tell you anymore because you just have to figure it out yourself. Just know that in the beginning of the book and on, Meggie is not aware of this secret. She does not know that her father has brought somebody to life, somebody very bad and Mortimer needs to fix this mistake before everything else goes wrong. Oops, I have told you way too much! Well, anyways I LOVE this book and I just yesterday, I saw this movie poster online that happened to have this exact title. I saw the premiere and started screaming on top of my lungs!! Cornelia Funke is an amazing author. If you haven't read this book, I strongly recommend that you do. It's not like any other book you have ever read. By the way, there's also another sequel to Inkheart called Inkspell. The third sequel called Inkdeath will be coming out in summer of 2009. I really can't wait!! Brendan Fraser plays Mortimer; my favorite character and actor.
