Finished reading: The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman. Absolutely wonderful. 📚

@manton I love that the kid has no name, and you never notice it until someone mentions it after reading. lol

@manton seeing this is a good reminder for me. I’ve never read anything by @neilhimself ! I’m wondering where I should start.

@manton Came here to say what Kevin did: the theatre production was delightful!

Heavier on effects than intricate writing, so not sure how it compares to the book, but still: delightful.

As far as I know, the West End show just wrapped, but hopefully another production happens someplace!

@KevinMarks @rcbo I would love to see it! I was thinking an animated film production would also be perfect.

@cdevroe I’ve only read a couple of his books myself. This one is my favorite so far. Also apparently The Neil Gaiman Reader is a nice collection.

@manton @rcbo The UK tour is over now (I got to see it twice) - hopefully they'll run another production, or bring it to the US too nationaltheatre.org.uk/whats-o
