Not my favorite [a:Neil Gaiman|1221698|Neil Gaiman|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1234150163p2/1221698.jpg], but a decent short story.

Esse é um daqueles contos do Neil Gaiman que passam voando. Quando vi já tinha terminado.
Eu achei que, pelo título, eu ia me incomodar um pouco com a estória, mas não foi o que aconteceu, já que ela foi por um caminho bem diferente do que eu imaginei e ainda deixou um final meio em aberto. Achei bem legal mesmo.
Vi que tem um filme, mas pelo que parece ele é bem diferente desse conto, então ainda não assisti. Alguém já viu? Se sim, recomenda?

This was an entertaining and exciting little short story. I planned to read the whole anthology book, but it wasn't able to fit within my book schedule. I will have to go back and read the full anthology book from Gaiman. I loved the short story and I look forward to the film!

Free Neil Gaiman short story with a preview of Ocean at the End of the Lane? "Sold"!

This has all of Gaiman's quirk, but I think this story is hampered by being so short. The build-up was not long enough for me. I wanted more foreplay.

How to Talk to Girls at Parties was a short story that had me curious, but it never quite wowed me in the way I had expected. It was different, but I had hoped for more from this one. I think my problem is that I’d heard a lot of good things about this one and went in with high expectations. Instead of getting one of Neil Gaiman’s strange gems, this one was simply strange.

All in all, this one wasn’t for me, but I’m sure it will work for many.

A quick read that packs a lot of story. Enjoyable enough too.

I am not sure what I felt of this yet. But it is a nice taste of Neil Gaiman's work :)
