Coraline

This is like the perfect Halloween read that I read in winter instead; not that it was any less creepy. The author says in the interview that younger readers find this book to be an adventure whereas the adults get scared and I think that's the perfect description. It's eerie, terrifying and very unlike anything I would ever read, but ultimately it's a story about bravery and I ended up enjoying it.

I still won't say that Gaiman's writing style or humor works for me, but I now have hope that maybe I can get used to it given time. Let's see !!!
