The Graveyard Book

I started to read this book just a few days ago and I am finished already. What a wonderful book this is. It is about a boy called Nobody Owens who lives in a graveyard. I am not going to tell more as I don't want to spoil the surprise for other readers. But this really is one of the best books I've ever read. It is very well written, and the humor is just great. It really is a Neil Gaiman book as it should be. I did read a few of them, but this is the best I've read so far. I found out about Neil, through Stardust. I heard about the film, when they were filming it. I was curious about the book and I bought it. I couldn't stop reading and was curious about other Gaiman books. There are still a few that I have to read, but I can say that Neil is an inspiration and a great writer. I love his dark sence of humor and the way he writes. I want to read Coraline too and I want to see the film. The Graveyard Book is a wonderful story for a film if you ask me. The characters are alive (depends on who they are though), and you can feel the graveyard atmosphere all around you when you read this book. It really is a recomandation. It is in my top 10 of favorites for sure. I want more Neil Gaiman books, and I can't wait to read the newest one when it comes out.
