I think I first read this book at about 12 or 13, but I gasped remembering Inkheart and Inkspell - this was one of the first books I ever read that had me on the edge of my seat and really viscerally invested in what was happening with the characters. Funke weaves such a comprehensive world with such rich relationships within it, and I remember breathlessly reading on to find out what was to come of the characters I'd grown to love. Highly highly recommend, particularly I think for young adults/adolescents, and definitely on my list to re-read.
I can't even express how amazing this book was. About a year ago, I started reading but then it had gotten boring around the middle so I quit reading it. I decided to give it another try cause why not ? I don't regret reading it. It was so good. I recommend it to anyone who likes magic or fairytales. 10/10 for me.
How did the mom get read out of the book if she isn't mentioned in it?
