2014 review ✔ Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman 5★♥ (kindle 5★♥/ dramatized audio on itunes own5★♥♥) Wow. Neil has been recommended and liked by a lot of shelfari people here. And so I just got 'round to reading Neverwhere and really enjoyed it. His writing is very gripping and the storyline is quite new and different. I really enjoyed reading Neverwhere. And then I've listened to the dramatized audio and liked that as well. Even though it was a just a little short. I loved James McAvoy. He was funny. I will definitely be giving his other books and audiobooks a go. (Probably Stardust because I absolutely loved the movie). Quotes I liked: "London grew into something huge and contradictory. It was a good place, and a fine city, but there is a price to be paid for all good places, and a price that all good places have to pay." “Do you like cat?” she said. “Yes,” said Richard. “I quite like cats.” Anaesthesia looked relieved. “Thigh?” she asked. “Or breast?”

I love the concept of this, however I do feel like this book could be half the length as a lot of the contents was rambling 🙈 the ending didn’t feel very satisfying but I was hooked for the duration.
