I’ve seen the movie Coraline, and I may eventually read the book. The only roesan I’m hesitant to say that I will read the book is because I’m not the biggest fan of Gaiman’s books. I’ve read several of his books, and with each one I thought that the ideas were absolutely brilliant, but the execution was just a little off. Although I did think that the shorter sections dealing with smaller gods in American Gods were more interesting than the overall novel. In some ways Gaiman’s writing may work a little better in shorter form where a cool idea can drive the story. In a novel you need more than just a cool idea for a successful story.
