I think this was a wonderful patchwork collection of Neil Gaiman’s writing. I really enjoy his style, though I’ve also learned that his poetry isn’t for me. The introduction provides context for each short story and I LOVED it. There’s something really cool about learning more about the inspiration or reason something was written. 

Favorites: The Thing About Cassandra, The Truth is a Cave in the Black Mountains, A Calendar of Tales, The Case of Death and Honey, Nothing O’Clock, The Sleeper and the Spindle, Black Dog.
