nila 's review for:

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman
3.75
adventurous challenging dark mysterious tense medium-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

This is perfectly. Not amazing, not bad, just perfectly average. I think this is the read that confirms, once and for all, that Gaiman is not for me. Honestly, I'm really disappointed. I've looked forward to finally getting into his bibliography and I haven't LOVED any of it, except The Graveyard Book... perhaps I would have liked it better when I was younger, because magical realism has that childlike wonder-vibe to me.
