"The Graveyard Book" by Neil Gaiman

I finished this book in the hospital, waiting for my sweet baby girl to arrive. Labor took a long time and reading was a good way to pass the time. Especially since The Graveyard Book had such a fantastic ending!

I had a hard time getting into this one, but the end really was so wonderful. Nobody Owens is a wonderful young hero and his story is unique and creative. Neil Gaiman sure knows how to create a fanciful world with lovable characters and unique situations. I'm not sure if I enjoyed this book or Stardust better, but I hope they make a movie of The Graveyard Book someday! If it's anything like Stardust in comparison to the book, it would be great!

If you're looking for a fun, easy read, you can't go wrong with a Neil Gaiman novel! Maybe I'll pick up a few more of his next year.
