I think I first read Neverwhere in high school. I’ve just remembered a rather tattered library copy that made its way into my hands. The young adult section at that local library was glorious! Oh, and I loved the book. I wasn’t really into fantasy literature at that point, but something about the sheer imagination and quirkiness and horror and subtle humor and ADVENTURE of it really struck a chord. So I went to college, bought my own copy, and re-read Neverwhere a couple of times. Then I lent the novel to a friend, who likewise raved about its genius. I never saw that book again. Meanwhile I dove into the rest of Gaiman’s novels (Stardust, American Gods, and eventually Anansi Boys…I tried to read Coraline, too, but got scared), and tried not to worry about the whereabouts of the missing book. In one of my more fanciful moments I even speculated that it was making the rounds of the college, discovered (and loved!) anew by other students every couple of weeks. I went to grad school and bought another copy, which I lent to a new friend. That book also disappeared. It started to feel as if Neverwhere created its own black hole of borrowed books. A couple of years later I moved to Atlanta for continued grad schooling, and when a friend came to me last month for leisure reading recommendations, I sent her home with The Graveyard Book and my newest copy of Neverwhere. For while I do worry that my Gaiman books won’t make it back to me, or will be harmed (I may be slightly obsessive about books staying in pristine condition), I can’t NOT lend them out. They’re so good! They must be shared! I am glad to report that my 3rd copy of Neverwhere returned safely this time, and that a brand-spanking-new Gaiman fan has been created. Yay! Neverwhere takes place in a fantasy world that sits right next to ours, though it goes unnoticed and unknown by those who live Above. The denizens of Below (in this case, London Below) live much more perilous, fateful and interesting lives. It’s a dark, fantastical, urban mystery-adventure, peopled with terrible nemeses, courageous, strange, and weird characters, and an unlikely hero who just wants to get back to the way things were before it all went pear-shaped. What happens, who meets whom, and a treacherous chase to the finish make this novel not only a favorite, but a must-read and a perfect fit for just about anyone (the truly squeamish need not apply).

I'd not read Auster before. Finding the insights about life in this book interesting and perhaps bec. I'm facing some life changes, it appeals more. It's amusing in a 'real life' way. The writing is amusing and insightful about the 'human condition' and about life's connections. Still reading - think it's worth picking up.
It's the big friendly giant! Yessssss!

Overall I liked it. There were a few instances in the book where it felt a little awkward but once I go through it, it was fine. It was interesting reading about that time in such detail. It definitely wasn't what I expected.

This book was one on my middle-schooler's list of "Young Reader's Picks". It was a quick read--story in poetry form. Informational, captivating, heartbreaking.

I'm re-reading this for book club.
This book was like an implosion in my frontal lobe. Sometimes I wish I hadn't read it, for my admiration of Western Civilization was greatly diminished. Truth hurts.
What more can I say about this classic fantasy novel written by C.S.Lewis.This book is like being on a vacation to fantasy world "Narnia".I was so engrossed that I could easily imagine myself to be in the fictional realm of Narnia walking side by side in a single file through the woods ,snows and avenues with the characters(Lucy and co.) and experiencing the adventure as much as they were. Late C.S.Lewis had that wand of imagination which made his readers delve deep into the world he created.The world full of adventures,contingencies and magic and where each character had a central role to play. Having read certain reviews about this book and C.S.Lewis (who is a Christian apologist), this book has got nothing to do with aims to present a rational basis for the Christian faith or expose the perceived flaws of other world views. This book is simply a GOOD-VERSUS-EVIL fantasy tale where as usual the GOOD(Aslan and Pevensie family) emerges out to be the winner.Rationale behind this book is to keep the children(to whom the author intends )sane and excited.

Stephen King's opus. You just can't put this down. Don't ask me to defend its literary value. Shut up. And now re-reading it. Makes no sense...I have so many other books to read. But I want to. So there. You know, having to spend all night in a hospital waiting room really helps you get through a big opus like this.
