The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
2.5
I hate to say it, but I think Neil Gaiman just isn’t for me. I think this is the fourth book of his I’ve read, and just none of them really have done it for me. This book follows Bod, the sole living resident at a cemetery.
I guess this was cute. There’s no one thing I can point to that made it so boring to me, like the story was unique and I liked the setting. I actually love the idea of a boy being raised by ghosts and being able to blend in with them. But despite that, I just could not care about the story at all. The whole time I was like “meh”, and really debated not finishing. The only reason I did was because it was so short. This author just is not for me.
