It was so engrossing that the book was hard to put down; the only downside to the story is that it had to end.

A book about a boy raised in a graveyard and learning about the world from old-timey ghosts. What's not to like?

Well... I wanted to like this book, but it couldn't hold my attention. I read about 1/3 of the book, but I couldn't connect to the characters and didn't feel the plot was going in a cohesive direction. It's my first time reading a book by Neil Gaiman, so it's possible his style isn't for me; however, there were enough intriguing threads in what I read that I'm open to trying out his other works.

The author does a great job of paying off foreshadowing in a satisfying way and immediately reminded me of the setup, even if the payoff itself didn't resonate with me.

It wasn't for me, but I wouldn't be surprised to see positive reviews either.

I couldn't put it down... it really lives up to the hype

Fast-paced from the start while still world-building, the book was hard to put down. The characters were complex and well-developed.

I really wanted to like this book, but I kept falling asleep instead. The Tao of Pooh was engaging and easy to finish. The Te of Piglet is neither
