* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

The book this week is Inkspell by Cornelia Funke. I seem to be reading a lot of YA books lately. This is the sequel to Inkheart of course which I liked alright so I thought I would keep going. Meggie is kind of annoying me in this one so far though.

The sentence:

The honey did burn your mouth like red-hot coals, but the pain passed away - and if you bore it long enough, then afterward you could speak to fire, even with a mere human tongue.

Sounds cool. The speaking to fire part, not the burning like red-hot coals part. Still, I don't think I would jump into the story even if I had a chance. But I've never been very adventurous. That's why I like to read so much. You get all the adventure but get to stay safe at home with a nice cup of tea.
