My Thoughts:

It was a fascinating adaptation of the original. In the other world still, everyone there made my skin crawl.

I was slow to get into this because visually it’s so different from the movie, but as I kept reading I enjoyed the story this version tells so much. I began to see Coraline in a new light - one I love almost as much as the original!

Also the kitty was especially cute in this!!!!
