Goodreads beskrivning
The day after they moved in, Coraline went exploring....
In Coraline's family's new flat are twenty-one windows and fourteen doors. Thirteen of the doors open and close.
The fourteenth is locked, and on the other side is only a brick wall, until the day Coraline unlocks the door to find a passage to another flat in another house just like her own.
Only it's different.
At first, things seem marvelous in the other flat. The food is better. The toy box is filled with wind-up angels that flutter around the bedroom, books whose pictures writhe and crawl and shimmer, little dinosaur skulls that chatter their teeth. But there's another mother, and another father, and they want Coraline to stay with them and be their little girl. They want to change her and never let her go.
Other children are trapped there as well, lost souls behind the mirrors. Coraline is their only hope of rescue. She will have to fight with all her wits and all the tools she can find if she is to save the lost children, her ordinary life, and herself.

Mina åsikter
Det här är en bok som jag länge tänkt att jag ska läsa då jag har hört så mycket gott om den. Men den här boken levde tyvärr inte alls upp till mina förväntningar. Jag förstår inte alls hypen för den är boken. Det tog mig väldigt lång tid att läsa den här boken och när jag väl lagt ifrån mig den så ville jag inte alls plocka upp den igen. Konceptet var intressant, men genomförandet gjorde berättelsen väldigt långdragen och seg. Jag klarar alltså inte av att behålla mitt fokus på berättelsen någon längre stund varje gång jag läste den. Chris Ridell har gjort flertalet väldigt fina illustrationer till den upplagan jag läste!
