Speaking of otherworldly adventures, have you ever thought of what it’s like to cross into the afterlife, but not completely? Of course you haven’t. Only Neil Gaiman would concoct a world of cemeteries brimming with the lives of ghosts and a human-ghost.
But a human-ghost can’t stay in a half-state forever, so things are bound to get a bit macabre when full-humans get jealous and violent over unfinished crimes. Though it is a children’s book, The Graveyard Book can be appreciated by people of all ages (as expected of Gaiman), since it deals with the timeless values of love, family, death, and life itself.
