If the unsettling, almost threatening presence of magic in The Owl Service drew you in, Coraline delivers a similarly eerie atmosphere.

If you appreciated the psychological depth of Alison, Gwyn, and Roger as they struggle with forces beyond their understanding in The Owl Service, you'll be gripped by The Changeling.

If you were drawn to the tight, almost suffocating setting of the Welsh valley and the small cast of characters in The Owl Service, Shirley Jackson's We Have Always Lived in the Castle will resonate. The story unfolds within the confines of a family home, focusing on the complex relationships and secrets of just a handful of characters.

If you loved watching Alison, Gwyn, and Roger confront growing up amid magical forces in The Owl Service, Skellig offers a similarly poignant coming-of-age experience.
