This book was so weird but very entertaining. Some scenes were actually scary written but I would not recommend reading this to a child even though it says that this is a children book. I would've been terrified if my mom read this to me. 
 All in all I really enjoyed the story. Short one but worth the read. But still it's a children's book and there is no real comparison to a adult book: and I also didn't love Coraline or the plot as a whole because sometimes it was too weird for me. That is why I give it three stars.
