Negative Positive
Title: Inkstain
Review: I haven't seen the movie but the previews looked good and I always like to give the book a chance before the movies anyway. I had hoped for better, everyone seemed to rave about the book but I found it pedestrian and dull - or in English, boring and about as interesting to read as the menu at IHOP - which at least has good pictures and decent food to reward you. The only reward in Inkheart - and I kept at it to the bitter end hoping there was some whipped cream or strawberries somewhere under that stack of syrup - is that I was finished and now can only hope the movie tells the story better.
Is the review positive or negative?
