simbotheking 's review for:

Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
1.0

I'm giving this one star as I rate books on my personal enjoyment and I didn't enjoy this at all. However, I'll admit some of the blame is mine as I bought this after watching the movie. Due to this, I expected the book to be way more detailed than it actually was. I never grew up with this book so I have no nostalgia about it. This meant I basically have just read a really young children's book (I was expecting it to be more in the vein of Harry Potter/Chronicles of Narnia but it's not) as an adult. Therefore its no huge surprise that I didn't enjoy it.

I guess its good if you've got kids though. I'm gonna probably end up reading this to my niece or nephew as as I have no more use for it.
