A review by tawfek
Death: The Time of Your Life by Neil Gaiman

5.0

Why do we hurt?
why do we die?
why isn't life good all the time?
why isn't it fair?


I knew it was Alvie, That baby was suspiciously sooo cute, that it had to be him.
Honestly i will not be putting this Graphic novel in my fantasy shelf, the story was mostly about the Life of Hazel and Foxglove, it was mostly a story about a couple of lesbians, how they fell in love and how they drifted apart, and how they eventually came back together.
Also i am not sure how to view This couple, Body positivity? or Lesbian Stereotypes? if the first then Yaay Great if the second then BOOO not great.
First Two parts of the story didn't even feel remotely tied to Sandman world at all, as the revelation of what Death wants was in the last part.
For those of you fine ladies and gentlemen who read [b:Death: The High Cost of Living|16791|Death The High Cost of Living|Neil Gaiman|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1366407293l/16791._SY75_.jpg|3138069], Hazel and Foxglove first Debuted there.
Which makes it perfect honestly that they eventually Got collected in [b:Death: The Deluxe Edition|18923941|Death The Deluxe Edition (Death of the Endless, #1-2)|Neil Gaiman|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1389410912l/18923941._SY75_.jpg|19093870]
We even see Sexton as well from the first graphic novel at one of the flashbacks.
Funniest person in this story was the Buddhist Underwear model guy, like why the fuck are you even going with them everywhere, some people don't know what's good for them.
It was really touching that Boris, who actually didn't believe in a being personifying Death, would be the one who sacrifices himself so that Hazel and foxglove and Alvie get to continue on living.
I liked the Scene when hazel told foxglove how she is wrong about not loving her anymore, since foxglove did follow her to the afterlife!
Often through life we really don't notice the things that clearly indicate that someone truly loves us.
The point? Walk the world, help to feed the hungry, help comfort those in pain, do what you can to leave the world a better place.
