slayra reviewed Coraline by Neil Gaiman
Review of 'Coraline' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
As all Gaiman's books, this is quite a dark story about a brave girl called Coraline, but who is often called Caroline. Coraline is very smart but is often ignored by the grown-ups around her. She ends up getting into a big trouble when she opens a mysterious door and arrives to a place where everything looks like her world but it is not exactly the same - her other mother is particularly creepy.
This is a great story about doing the right thing and being brave, even when you are really scared. Gaiman's writing is beautiful and sometimes Coraline's logical and innocent thoughts reminded me of [a:Diana Wynne Jones|4260|Diana Wynne Jones|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1193516584p2/4260.jpg]. Great book, and a great message for life. So simple and yet so needed.
