Coraline by Neil Gaiman
4.0

My rating is more of a 3.5, but we'll go with 4.

I actually thought that I had already read this book, but I guess not because it was all new to me this time. Maybe I just have a terrible memory. *shrug*

Anyway, the story is short, but entertaining. It's a pretty classic child-stealing fae story. That said, I don't understand all the hype around this book. It's not bad, but there are loads of stories out there about wicked fae creatures. Maybe it's because this book doesn't flat-out say the word "fae" or "fairies." Or maybe it's because all Neil Gaiman books blow up. Either way, it's a decent read. Nothing new or innovative, but entertaining.
