It gets darker in this book, the reason I stopped for a while in the middle. This steps up in the "oh shit, yuck" horror stuff and...I would say that you shouldn't pay a second thought to it and you'll be completely fine. If you think too much then you might have some weird thoughts and see stuff in darkness. That's how horror world ig.
Still, a decent story, but not at par with the other novel level stuff Sandman had produced in earlier books. But this is Gaiman so...I don't care, I will continue reading. Kudos.

This was a great volume.
It went into so much depth than I was expecting, about topics such as gender and sexuality identity. I thought it was quite well handled. I mean there were some things such as deadnaming that I definitely cringed at, but it's what a lot of trans people have to go through, which is an awful thought.
Wanda really captured my heart from the start, as well as the little old lady, Maisie.
I love when Gaiman heavily focuses on the dream aspect of his storytelling in these comics, particularly when the majority of the story is set in Morpheus' Dream Realm. It's such a rich place, and unique each time, depending on the main character we focus on.
I felt such sorrow throughout this. There were so many characters I fell for and wanted to protect with my whole fibre of my being, so when tragedy befell, I was wrecked.
