The Ocean at the End of the Lane

A children's fable, suitable for adults as well. I would imagine this feels the same as Coraline.

I can't really say Neil Gaiman's books are bad, or that I don't like them. For one his prose is at the very least a bit compelling regardless of the story he is telling. Then his voice, he is the perfect narrator for his own stories.

That said, his stories are not usually my kind of stories. Like this one. It was just entertaining enough. I'm not into fables.
