A review by jamielynnz
Neil Gaiman and Charles Vess' Stardust #1 by Neil Gaiman

5.0

I have to say that I really enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. It has almost been a month since I read it and yet I still laugh at certain things that happened in the book which pop into my head from time to time. The story was full of comedy, adventure, and romance, and I loved the whimsical nature of it all. As for the illustrations, I was given this book as a gift and I would have never chosen the illustrated version if not for receiving it. However, I ended up enjoying the beautiful illustrations so much that I can’t picture myself reading the story without them. I especially loved the paintings that spanned across two pages. Overall, the book was very enjoyable and the illustrations only furthered my love of this story. I would definitely recommend it to those who enjoy a bit of fantasy or romance, and to those who need a good laugh.
