Neil Gaiman's latest. I love him. It was a fun book, but of course not my favorite, because it's a young adult book and one of my favorite things about his adult books is the...intelligence level...? I guess the way the novel engages with your intelligence, a way that most adult books completely miss.
I liked this one, though. Fun, intriguing, and just brilliantly original. Hooray for more Neil Gaiman!
P.S. I forgot to mention that the only problem I had with this book was that it seemed more like a series of short stories....But that's not really necessarily a problem as long as you know not to expect one big plot and nothing else, if that makes sense. And maybe that means more stories about Bod in the future...which is a good thing, I think!

I had difficulty getting into this, but I liked Coraline, and I like Gaiman's style, so I'd like to give his adult books a try.
