This is my favorite book in my favorite trilogy, so I highly recommend it!
While Inkheart followed the idea of "what if your favorite characters could come to life," this follows the idea of "what if you could travel into your favorite book," while, again like Inkheart, taking it to the next level with, "and then something really bad happens."
In this book we actually get to see the world of the Inkheart book (yes, Inkheart is a book with in another book called Inkheart.) and all of the fantastic creatures who live there. The whole book was so entertaining and suspenseful. I loved everything about it.

Unverständlich, warum die Charaktere ausgerechnet in diese Buchwelt wollen und dann auch noch dableiben? Muss Meggie nicht in die Schule? Was ist mit einer guten Krankenversorgung?
This sequel to Inkheart wasn't as good as Inkheart itself, but it was still pretty good. The plot picked up tempo and got far more involved with the whole idea of the story world. A lot more characters were introduced, and we saw Meggie and Mo change as they faced new challenges.
The downside of this book: parts of it dragged, especially as this book is aimed at a younger audience. And so many characters were introduced, and so many side stories were created it could get confusing and at times, a bit boring.
So I still loved it, just not as much as Inkheart.

Sigh. It's been awhile and I'm getting old--I'm going back to what feels like another life now. I remember vividly, sitting in my living room in the winter, reading this book shortly after finishing the first in the series. I know I loved it, and many of the characters were reoccuring, though a young boy pops up in this one. It seems to me he got to me a little, but it's hard to remember. I'll read up for a refresher and plump this up.
Αυτή είναι μια από τις σειρές που είχα ξεκινήσει μικρή αλλά δεν τελείωσα ποτέ γιατί το επόμενο βιβλίο, και στην προκειμένη περίπτωση το τελευταίο, δεν μεταφράστηκε ποτέ στα ελληνικά. Σε αντίθεση με άλλες όμως που τις έχω παρατήσει εντελώς μετά από τόσα χρόνια, αυτή ήθελα πολύ να την τελειώσω, ήθελα πολύ να μάθω τι γίνεται μετά το τέλος αυτού του βιβλίου, πώς συνεχίζει και πώς τελειώνει.
Ήρθε η ώρα του λοιπόν! Αλλά πριν πιάσω το τρίτο και τελευταίο είπα να ξαναθυμηθώ το δεύτερο, να ξαναμπώ λίγο στο κλίμα, στον παραμυθένιο του κόσμο που τόσο μου άρεσε.
Και χαίρομαι που μου άρεσε και αυτή τη φορά! Υπήρχαν πράγματα που είχα ξεχάσει και πράγματα που θυμόμουν πολύ καλά(όπως αυτό το αναθεματισμένο τέλος!), ξαναθυμήθηκα και τους αγαπημένους μου χαρακτήρες καθώς φυσικά και τους απεχθείς κακούς! (Γενικά ήταν πολύ καλή ιδέα να το ξαναδιαβάσω!!)
Τώρα λοιπό, επιτέλους, είμαι έτοιμη να ξεκινήσω το τρίτο!!
(Αν το διάβαζα τώρα για πρώτη φορά μάλλον θα του έβαζα 4 αστεράκια, αλλά λέω να κρατήσω την παλιά βαθμολογία στα 5 αστεράκια.)

Reread since childhood
The world is completely immersive. It’s entrancing and so easy to get lost in. And like the first book, the concept is one of my favorite things I’ve read. I love following Meggie and Dustfinger and Mo and everyone.
The reason it’s not 5 is it does have the middle book feel. It’s a set up for a bigger plot rather than a plot itself. But it was still a great read if you like being in a world

A year has passed since being thrown into the story of Inkheart and Dustfinger, a character who was brought to life, wants nothing more than to return to his world. Finding a crooked storyteller he gets sent back. Trying to find him Meggie gets thrown back into the story but the story wants to evolve in ways that could threaten them all. More magic, more adventures, we get to learn more about the Inkworld and all of it's many characters. A really long book but the world building is great.
I loved 'Inkspell' so much, it was a fantastically written sequel to 'Inkheart'. The characters were just as good as I remembered them, and the new ones memorable and equally as appealing. The world-building for inside the book as well was just phenomenal, Funke has a real talent for creating a vision of what her creations look like! Also, the plot twist at the end made me cry. A lot. As soon as I realised what had happened I literally bawled like a baby, so well done for that. I was VERY attached to Dustfinger and that can only be a plus point for Funke!
If you read and enjoyed the first Inkheart book, this is worth reading as well.
