I finished reading Coraline last night. My daughter, Nicole lent me her book awhile back, and I've had it sitting on my nightstand for the longest time. I finally gave myself time to read it. I've been a big fan of the film for a long time, so the book didn't disappoint at all. It's funny how people call her Caroline Jones in the book. That's my mother-in-law's name. Coraline is such a unique name, just as the story is unique.
Now that I've finished the book, I'll probably watch the movie again. I was going through some old photos recently when I came across the one I did after the movie came out. They used to have the photo thing on their site, but I don't see it now. Talk about The Other Mother ...
I haven't read this, but I did like the movie. I'll have to watch it!
ReplyDeleteIt's not too different than the movie, but it was still a fun read, just as most of his books are. I love those dark stories for kids. I'm not into the dark ones for adults too much -- although I am reading The Shining at the moment. I never read books like that.
