This is a hard review to write. Not for any reason in particular.To get into things I liked. I enjoy the story and plot as a whole. I like Gaimans writing. I love the vibe and atmosphere of the story. It has always been a favourite of mine. The cat is definitely my favourite character. However, I watched the movie first (as I am sure, a lot of us did). The movie felt more fleshed out than the book. However that might be because of the movie being catered towards an older audience as well. I don't actually have any issues with the book, there are just some things I preferred more in the movie vs the book and vice versa. However this book will stay on my shelves to be treasured.
I adored it! I love the movie but this no where compares to it, it is a lot more scary then i thought it would be lolz I think this is a 10/10 for a cozy spooky ready I adore it!
