The Thief of Always by Clive Barker
4.0

I would have loved this book as a kid, but unfortunately it wasn't published until I was in high school and on to "grown-up" books. Now, as I've been interested in what is out there for young adults, I had a chance to read Thief of Always and really enjoyed it. A lot of reviews compare it to Gaiman's Coraline and I can see the similarity of storyline however the writing styles are different enough I didn't feel I was reading the same exact story.

The simple message to enjoy the time you have with those you love is well illustrated in this spooky little book.
