Das Syndrom des zweiten Buches... es war nicht so gut wie das erste, aber dafür hoffe ich, dass das dritte Buch umso besser wird. An manchen Stellen hat sich die Geschichte echt gezogen, daher hat es bei mir ein bisschen länger gedauert das Buch zu beenden.

DID NOT FINISH

Unsure whether I'll get back to this. I kept having trouble picking it up.

This one didn't grab me like the first one did, unfortunately. It just wasn't nearly as exciting, and I really struggled to get through it. I am hoping that the next book will be better.

Not overly impressed with this book. In fact I nearly put it down 300 pages in, but once you're that far in you kind of want to plough on.
This wasn't really a sequel to inkheart by cornelia funke. In fact it felt more like a sequel to inkheart by fenoglio, with a few extra characters thrown in so the plot could be changed willy nilly without much thought. I didn't enjoy reading this very much, and found it quite hard work. 2/5 is all I'm afraid.
adventurous lighthearted slow-paced

I’ll send to let you know when I want words again. They are sweet-tasting poison, but still, they’re the only way to make even pain taste bittersweet for a few moments.

I feel like many of my qualms about Inkheart have been resolved in Inkspell. The pacing feels better (even if it still took a while to read), and the tension of the plot built more steadily, with fewer interruptions.
