Hearts, Keys, And Puppetry (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

This novella by Neil Gaiman manages to present a profound story about love and forgiveness (of yourself as well as others) in a very short space. It includes Gaiman’s typical poetic brilliance, odd darkness, and compelling characters. It is an intriguing story and an excellently read audio book (Katherine Kelgren—my favorite). With the dark story, I would recommend it for teen readers.When preparing for dinner one evening, Samantha finds herself switched with her reflection in the mirror. She is trapped in a strange world where nothing seems to make sense and she can only find riddles for how to escape. In her quest to get back home, Sam also finds herself fighting to save her long lost brother as well as herself. She soon finds freedom will only come as she forgives herself and learns to love the person she is. I loved this story! This was a neat little fairytale retold at least that’s what it felt like to me. It has shades of Alice in Wonderland in fact there is a cute little epilogue I enjoyed too. I don’t want to say too much since it is a short story I don’t want to give anything away to detract from enjoying this one!I must say that I am a Neil Gaiman fan and a Katherine Kellgren fan but I think even if I wasn’t I would have enjoyed this story!This audiobook is only an hour and forty-five minutes long and well worth the $1.95 audible is charging.5 stars

Alice in Wonderland redux? Maybe I was just in a mood but I couldn't get into this book

Katherine Kellgren is an amazing narrator, I will be searching out her projects.
—Jenna

The Alice in Wonderland concept is the main reason I did not like this book.

I feel like I may need a second reading.
