27.Jun.2009 The Dream King Challenge
1 January 2009 – 31 December 2009
The Dream King Challenge is hosted by Jessi @ casual dread. I have unofficially joined this challenge a while ago, but must have forgotten to post about it. I had never read Neil Gaiman’s before this year, and I thought this year should be the year. He’s so popular especially among bloggers and I told myself I had to read at least a few of his books to know what they’re like and join the frenzy.
There are levels of participation:
- Neophyte: Read one work and watch one movie
- Acolyte: Read three works and watch one movie
- Devotee: Read six works and watch one movie
- Zealot: Read twelve works and watch one movie
Half a year has passed and I’ve read three of his books so I’m in good stand to run for Devotee. Now the movie requirement is hard. I know Coraline has just come out recently, but I missed it and I don’t know if I can watch it before the end of the year. We’ll see.
My list of books:
- The Sandman Volume 1: Preludes & Nocturnes (read 03/09,
) - The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman (read 03/09,
) - The Sandman Vol 2: The Doll’s House by Neil Gaiman (read 06/09, )
Movies:
Coraline (watched 09/09, Rating: 7.5/10)
Update 11 Oct 09
I mentioned about the possibility to go for Devotee level, but I think I would stop right now and declare this challenge complete for the Acolyte level. Hope to read more Neil Gaiman’s, but I’ll save them for next year or after.
