I felt quite unsettled in parts, I couldn’t imagine reading this as a young kid it definitely would have given me nightmares.
Neil Gaiman does an amazing job of world building and evoking strong imagery and emotions. This definitely made me excited to read more of his work.
But while it’s a middle grade book it doesn’t overly feel like one, and I think many adults would enjoy this too.
Now time to go watch the movie and see how it compares.
