Bookworm

Finished reading Coraline this morning. You know, I think that could be considered a pretty accurate 'kiddie' version of the book I'm about to start reading; strange house, impossible dimensions, creepy creatures trying to get at the main character... (I'm about to start reading House of Leaves). 

Couple of crazy coincidences regarding Coraline: there was a small reference in the book to the play The Importance of Being Earnest, which happened to be the play on the ticket stub I was using as a bookmark. Also, I saw the play with the person who lent me the book, and it happened on the same night (the play and the lending of the book). Weeeird. 

Soooo looking forward to reading House of Leaves. I've heard from different people it's the scariest book, strangest book, craziest book, etc., etc. But besides how one feels about the book, people are very vague when describing it. I'm okay with that. I think I've finally gained a decent overall picture of what it's actually about.
