Oh my goodness, this book was amazing. The story over-all is dark, but has some excellent humor as well, which breaks things up nicely. The plot is creative and fast-paced, and the characters are incredibly crafted. This story has some of the most genuinely unsettling villains that I’ve ever read, and twists that manage to knock you off your feet but still make sense. I would definitely recommend this book.

I thought this book was good, but the plot was all over the place. I really love Neil Gaiman and his novels usually pull me in but this one was tough to get through for me.

Bonus - Neil Gaiman narrated the audiobook.
I thoroughly enjoyed the premise and characters. Coincides with mental stories developed through years of people watching.
