The Ink Drinker

The Ink Drinker is a mystery and a Holloween-horror type book. The main character, a boy who I think it never said the name of, (why the bugonzas didn't they?) and he is left to take care of his dad's bookstore. Then the title character comes in: a dude who sucks ink out of books come into his bookstore. Then the boy gets curious about this dude and follows him out of the bookstore where ever he is going. He follows him all the way to the graveyard and finding out that he is a VAMPIRE! The Ink Drinking vampire tells him that he used to drink blood, but he became allergic to the stuff. Then he bites the boy with his ink-nib shaped teeth. When he wakes up later back at the bookstore he tries drinking ink himself and it works! Weird, huh?

This book was kind of weird, but I learned to enjoy that partly because I've read my Ripley's Believe it or Not Book (enough that I've already mentioned it in another blog post). Even though this kind of weird is a bit different--of course it is fiction and Ripley's only has stuff that is reality, even though it is still weird (yeah, duh!)

Questions from my mom:
Q: Are you an Ink Drinker? Why or Why Not?
In the book being an Ink Drinker means being someone who sucks all the ink out of books (as I already said) but in reality it would probably mean stuff like the phrase "You gobbled up that book!" Am I an ink drinker? It depends. I'd probably be getting drunk on the science section in the bookstore or library but I might want to read some other book again and drinking it means it would be all gone!

Q: Would you recommend this book to someone? If so, who and why?
I am not quite sure who I would recommend this to. Nobody specific. I liked it enough to say that someone else might enjoy it. There's a whole bunch of other ink drinker books so I might want to read those. I'll recommend it for now because of my evidence from this book but all say if I don't recommend one of them after I read some more of them.
