I’ve got a real thing for supernatural fiction and science fiction, so I read quite my share of books on my Kindle. Yet in many of these fun novels, I’ve seen a lot of writers use the prepositions In or Into interchangeably when writing. That’s actually a big boo-boo. So here I am again, to put the issue at rest for my favorite writers and for you too:)
IN is a preposition used to denote the place where a person or thing, whether at rest or in motion, is present. It expresses a final position.
INTO is a preposition used to denote entrance. It expresses movement.
