Book Review: Neverwhere

Prior to reading Neverwhere, I have already read several Neil Gaiman books and it’s prolly obvious by now that I immensely enjoyed all his works. As of this review, there’s no single Neil Gaiman book that I did not like and I’m glad that Neverwhere would not be the first time. As with the other Gaiman books, Neverwhere has that same whimsy, quirky and yet, profound vibe that are so familiar yet novel with Gaiman’s stories. How does Neil do it? Being able to weave a lot of stories without losing the individual magic of each one. Neverwhere was somewhat…

Book Review: The Graveyard Book

It’s not every day that you get to encounter a book that would affect you so deeply that you just want to savor in its quaintness for how many days. The Graveyard Book is one such book wherein Neil Gaiman’s storytelling enhanced the richness of Nobody Owen’s, our little hero, story. Nobody ‘Bod’ Owens grew up and was raised by the ghosts in the graveyard. Bod thought that this was normal as he traipsed around and explored the graveyard as a growing child would normally do. However, his normal life within the compounds of the graveyard was turned upside and…
