Books at the Box Office: Coraline

I believe Coraline, the movie, was my first real introduction to Neil Gaiman.

We all have a book series that we enjoyed, if not loved, as teens that was absolutely butchered by a movie adaptation

Overall, I enjoyed this–4 stars from me and I’ll recommend it to my grandmother.

Queer girls, a movie set, a haunted school and a dual timeline? Sign me up,

Before she was Bella Swan, Kristen Stewart was in Speak

There are few things I like more than a boarding school book, and a boarding school book with an under-pining of toxic pandemics? Oooh, right?

A hyped up book about black mermaids but set in a contemporary world? I was intrigued,

Fairy tales meet contemporary coming out stories in this enchanting, heart-warming graphic novel.

My generation was raised on Harry Potter, but those of us who liked to read outside the series quickly found Eragon

I loveeee a good middle grade graphic novel

I STAN Ellen Hopkins books so hard.

After a long wait that was entirely my own fault, I finally read THE INVISIBLE LIFE OF ADDIE LARUE by VE Schwab and it blew me away.
