A review by labyrinth_witch
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman, Terry Pratchett
4.0
The idea that everything that annoys you on a day-to-day basis is because of the “messing around” of a wayward demon and a well-intended angel makes you looks at your world a little differently. I laughed out loud at the “unfood” and the only thing left after the apocalypse are the “cockroaches and fundamentalists.” In fact, I’m still laughing about it. It’s even hard to choose a favorite character, I loved them all. Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman perfectly understand the minds of children. So when they write the anti-Christ as an eleven year old boy, it makes perfect sense. In fact, I kinda hope my son grows up to be playful and imaginative like the Them. Overall, ridiculous and fun, with poignant moments to think about why we wish the world would end.
