Excellent choices. I am so excited about The Graveyard Book. Can’t come quickly enough! I’ll be reading that one (hopefully) and also revisiting Coraline for the challenge.
Look forward to your review posts!
I’m sharing Dracula with you. I’ve been wanting to read Rebecca for some time now and think I’ll add her along with a Gaiman for next year.
I just read Coraline last month — I wish I had saved it for the challenge!
