lara_lleverino 's review for:

The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman

5.0

---

This is a book of longing. This book makes you want to reach out and grasp the reality that you know deep inside you is there and is true but cannot be apprehended by your earth bound senses. This book tells you suffering has purpose, that sacrifice is worthwhile, that evil will be balanced.

This book reminded me some of A Wrinkle in Time by Madeline L’Engle.
