Readers say *Stardust* by Neil Gaiman is a charming, imaginative fairy tale blending the mundane with the magical, praised for vivid imagery and story...
I didn't find this one as humorous as other books by the author, but it was still a good book. It kept my attention for the most part.
I would recommend this book.
I really did enjoy this book but I didn’t enjoy it as much as Coraline or American Gods. To be honest, I wasn’t certain about the passage of time in this book. Every once in awhile there will be a story that comes along that is a bit off (to me at least) when it comes to the passage of time. This would be one of those stories. How much time passed during the main character’s journey? To me, this would have been better if it were a longer read and delved more into things. That doesn’t completely detract from the overall enjoyment factor though. I still enjoyed it and enjoy Gaiman’s style! I will be going back for more!
Recommended for anyone looking for a quick, easy, and entertaining read.
