Coraline – Review #6 for AamilTheCamel

February 11, 2014 by AamilTheCamel Leave a Comment

Sixth book reviewed as part of the 130 Challenge. Also my 50th blog post! Yahoo! Let me tell you first that I read this entire book in a British accent, and might I add, it was a delightful experience! I suggest that you try it too. Coraline is a delightfully creepy (oxymoron?) and surprisingly witty story about a girl who is not particularly fond of her surroundings and the people that inhabit them. Her parents don’t really pay much attention to her. The weather, being […]

Love the movie, love the book

February 9, 2014 by cheerbrarian 1 Comment

I can say that I am now an unabashed Nick Hornby fan. A fellow book lover pal of mine mailed me their copy of About a Boy which started me on my road to fandom. It was delightful, and I remembered enjoying the film of High Fidelity so I decided to read the book. Luckily, it had been a long while since I’ve seen the movie so I was able to still have th element of surprise. It. Was. Great. Rob owns a record shop […]
