A review by morgob
Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman

5.0

I absolutely LOVE Neil's writing. He is definitely in my top 5 favorite authors of all time. Seriously, picking up this book felt like eating soup on a rainy day while cuddled up in a blanket. Even though I hadn't been in this world before--London Below-- I felt like I had. It felt like home. I'm also very glad I got the author's preferred text because, though I have no clue the differences between the versions, this is the one Neil likes best. I loved all the characters, even Mr. Croup and Mr. Vandemar. I loved the world so much, and I have decided I would spend ten books in this world, if I could. It reminded me a bit of Kraken, to be honest. But I also think I could tell whose story this was even if his name wasn't on it. That's all I can do to describe this book: it was so irrevocably Neil. I want everyone I love to read this. I want to reread it immediately. Most of all, I want more books like this. Definitely one of my favorites of the year so far.
