I have found Gaiman to be highly unpredictable, you never quite know what you're going to get. He always sounds like Gaiman, but every book is a new experience. I don't always like some of the experiences (in comparison to others), but they seem pretty much guaranteed to be inventive and very well done.
So Coraline was - for me - fairly meh. Better second time around than the first. But The Graveyard Book is one of my favourites (along with Neverwhere and Stardust), so it will be no effort whatsoever for me to read it again ... well, except the slight extra effort to lift the weight of my hardcover copy, I'm out of practise.
