Stardust - Neil Gaiman - ★★★.¼

AUTHOR: Neil Gaiman
GENRE: Fantasy
PUBLICATION DATE: 
February 1, 1999
RATING: 3.25 stars.


How I wish I hadn't seen the movie first! I had watched it without knowing that it was based on a book. However, I couldn't leave a Neil Gaiman book unread and that's why I decided to go for this. But the storyline in the book differs a little from the movie, and not in a good way. 

I think the movie fixed the boring points in the book effectively. Plus, trigger warning: the book involves a gruesome animal death. So this will be the rarest of rare recommendations from me: skip the book and try out the movie if you're looking for good entertainment.
