The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I appreciate Neil Gaiman, but I’ve never been a fanboy or anything. So I expected to enjoy ‘the Graveyard Book.’ I just wasn’t prepared for how *much* I’d enjoy it!
The book is simultaneously familiar and novel (no pun intended). And Gaiman’s balance of simple-yet-vivid prose is staggering.
