🔥 Super difficult question : What is your favorite #NeilGaiman’s book ?

I think my personal favorite is #Neverwhere . Read it years and years and years ago. Still in awe . Incredible world building. Incredible story. Incredible characters.

@ablueboxfullofbooks @neilhimself @bookstodon I really loved Neverwhere, but I’ve probably read Good Omens the most times. I read it at least yearly, and I’ve had multiple copies ❤️

@amandagray @ablueboxfullofbooks @neilhimself @bookstodon For me, it will always be The Ocean at the End of the Lane. It touched my heart.

I think Neverwhere is my favorite because it was my introduction to Gaiman. I love the fuzzy quality reality has in his writing.

@jameswynn @kcrouth @kimlockhartga @bookstodon @neilhimself @ablueboxfullofbooks I haven’t read the graphic novel, but I don’t see why you can’t start with that!

my first Gaiman was in:
The Matrix Comics Vol 1 by Geof Darrow
They are all quite good, but by far the best is an essay story entitled Goliath by Neil Gaiman, which is in my view was the best. Awesome storytelling, you can read it here:

I also really love the lecture he gave on “ Why our future depends on libraries”

Neil Gaiman: Why our future depends on libraries, reading and daydreaming

A lecture explaining why using our imaginations, and providing for others to use theirs, is an obligation for all citizens
