Books O' The Week

Coraline by Neil Gaiman

I found I really liked this book. After seeing previews for Stardust and a recommendation from PITNB, I went and baught this book. I ended up reading it in about a couple hours. Was a pretty fast read! He reminds me very much of Tim Burton, very gothic and creepy. I'm a sucker for a good fantasy novel and this was definetly worth it to me.



Stardust by Neil Gaiman

Ok so I was on a Gaiman craze. This book took me a while to really get into. The first couple of chapters were sorta boring. I was very suprised by a pretty graphic sex scene in the third chapter though! By the end of the book I was completely sucked in. Gaiman created a story that reminded me very much of The Neverending Story but without all the many creatures and sub-stories. I thought it was a pretty good book. I was dissapointed though when I went to go see the movie in theatres. But whatever.
