This is the perfect read for people who like books about books and don't mind going on an epic adventure without leaving their home. That is basically what happens to the main character Sarah Allister when she falls asleep next to a cursed book written by one of her ancestors many years ago. She is a bookseller in Blinney Lane, Salem and along with the other shopkeepers she can't leave the small town because of an ancient curse. This idea is great and made me keep turning pages to know what would happen next. The story got a lot more interesting when Sarah's seventeen-year-old nephew Ricky came to stay with her for the Summer. Reading the interactions between he and his aunt and also bookworm Shelby was a lot of fun. ;)
As more characters were introduced and the action unfolded I felt as if I was with them in their adventures in Farwin Wood (the land of the cursed book). Nearing the end, I didn't want to finish the book, not because it was bad, but because I felt bad for leaving Sarah, Ricky, Shelby, Henry, Vasimus (and even Ranthrop) and the whole lot...
Overall, I loved this book and I wish there was another! :)… (meer)
