The Writer's LibraryAnansi Boys by Neil Gaiman My rating: 3 of 5 stars “It begins, as most things begin, with a song. In the beginning, after all, were the words, and they came with a tune. That was how the world was made, how the void was divided, how the lands and the stars and the dreams […]
The Sleeper and the Spindle by Neil Gaiman My rating: 4 of 5 stars “She wondered how she would feel to be a married woman. It would be the end of her life, she decided, if life was a time of choices. In a week from now, she would have no choices. She would reign […]
American Gods by Neil Gaiman My rating: 2 of 5 stars “‘Gods die. And when they truly die they are unmourned and unremembered.

Micro God by K. R. Martin My rating: 4 of 5 stars “It is only the damned that need fear me. That which is destroyed cannot be restored. That which is mended cannot be maintained.” I was introduced to K.R. Martin through his popular YouTube show The Book was Better. I thoroughly enjoy Martin’s content […]
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Childhood is a wonderful, imaginative, all-too-brief time of life. “Adults follow paths. Children explore. Adults are content to walk the same way, hundreds of times, or thousands; perhaps it never occurs to adults to step off the paths, to […]
The Graveyard Book by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars So quick story before I dive into this review. I was going into ninth grade, about five years ago now, and this was on my Summer Reading List. I picked it up, but the story wasn’t grabbing me right away (I was very impatient […]
