The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman

4.0

---

I like Gaiman's children's stories, and was happy to hear that he'd written one for adults. I don't think the categorization is true, though-- I think the audience for this book is YA (one modest sex scene; some scares). I loved the point of view, a seven-year-old's, because Gaiman's excellent skills made me "see" the world again from that young age. This is a page turner, filled with mystery and wonder.
