I can't help but feel somewhat disappointed. I loved it from the start, but then it kind of lost steam and wasn't nearly as funny as it was in the beginning the longer it went on. I don't know. I love Gaiman and I've read some Pratchetts (but wasn't exactly WOWed by his discworld books) but this, while still a good and pretty funny read, wasn't anywhere close to what I was expecting it to be. I've seen it praised like crazy for the past few years, and I know it's been popular for ages, but... that was it?

I loved the concept! I loved some of the jokes. But ultimately, I feel like it was missing something. Maybe that's my fault.
