"The Graveyard Book"


For the record I liked "The Graveyard Book" very much, although I didn't think it was better than "Coraline", which I adore. It was nice to see Gaiman playing a few of his old beloved riffs, like a female Death, and a character which can enter other people's dreams. It's certainly cool that it won that Newbury Award.

I'm re-reading "Coraline" now, because I won't get a chance to see it in the cinemas until may.

I liked it a bit better than "Coraline," but Neil has yet to write something that I don't like. He hasn't yet written a novel that I love as much as "Sandman," but I'm sure that he will sooner or later.

Well, I wasn't too fond of The Alice Cooper book, but you're one of them 'heavy metal' people, so you probably liked it better than me ;)
