I finished the book, but am still gathering my thoughts. I might have loved it? I might have hated it? I don't know, I need to think on it a little bit! I am eager to see what others thought of it.
I finished. I can't say whether I loved this or not either. I found myself thinking about the random things occurring much after I had read them. I also really had to focus because I felt like if I didn't I might miss a detail that could mean something to me, which is always something I enjoy in books. This book also made me realize that my knowledge of folklore is pretty lacking and I will probably work on that! I am pretty curious about how this will be a tv show. I may actually be curious enough to subscribe to Starz, and I'm terrible at following tv shows!
Maggie, I watched the show last night and it was really good! I loved the style and they did a good job bringing the characters to the screen. It was really cool how they did Technical Boy, and Mr. Wednesday was perfect. I honestly think it might make a better show than book, which is rare! I was really confused for a lot of the book and had to re-read several sections so I could figure out what was going on (only some of it didn't end up being important). However, it did expand my mind in a lot of ways. I also want to learn more about folklore in different cultures. Overall, I am glad I read it. Am I a Neil Gaiman junkie now? I don't think so, but I do get why some people love him.
