To me this book felt a little bit like home, it made my hert smile while reading. I know it's not a helpfu  review but it just felt that way. I read it in autumn and the vibes where immaculate.
I really liked Gaiman's writing the descriptions are vividly and not tiresome. Just by reading a couple of lines you get immersed in this wonderful word. 
The writer does a good job at setting the time of the living in a way that you don't forget when all this is happening, which I impressed me as the register changed depending in the characters.

I read it in Spanish, and I think the way it is excellently written. It's a hard book on a hard topic and as you continue reading it get's harder, but I enjoyed it and think it's a good book to think about what makes us different than other animals and what not.
