schildpad 's review for:

5.0

Still my favourite Sandman novel & Delirium is also still my favourite character, but reading it again I was also intrigued by Desire & Despair & I am a bit sad so much of Sandman revolves around Dream and his brooding sessions (and yes I get that he's the main character but honestly he's a typical Neil Gaiman main character in the sense that the most interesting thing about him is the 'people' he surrounds himself with). I would've loved to read more stories about his siblings.
Also proud of myself it took me until April to read something by Neil Gaiman this year.

This is one of my favourite Sandman novels. It was beautiful and sad and made me laugh at times and there were so many great little things like the ghost cats and the sarcastic dog. Also Delirium is such a fascinating character and I loved getting to see more of her (and her realm). Also the first Sandman that left me wanting to pick up the next one immediately.
