”That’s the trouble with living things. Don’t last very long. Kittens one day, old cats the next. And then just memories. And then the memories fade and blend and smudge together…”

I was instantly hooked on this book. Couldn’t stop reading it, not only for keeping me on the edge of my seat, but because of how beautifully it was written.
I hadn’t expected anything of this book, really. I’d heard about it, sure, but this wasn’t at the top of my TBR. So, imagine how surprised I was when shit started to go down (and it went down Fast). I had thought this was just a book about someone’s childhood. That’s it. I had no idea what to expect.
Such a great book. Absolutely love Neil Gaiman and his writing. Keeps me inspired.
