adventurous
funny
medium-paced
4.5
Neil Gaiman is one of my favourite authors of all time, so I may be bias...
I thought this was a charming read! As an adult woman, this book wasn't "written for me" per se, but that didn't eat away at my enjoyment of it at all. I thought it was cute, and still told a compelling story.
Gaiman has a way with magic that just makes it an inherent reality in the stories he weaves, like it's been there all along, even in the real world. I really appreciate that about his works, and this was no exception.
