I got this book in order to read something by Neil Gaiman and see what all the fuss was about him. Well, I wasn't too impressed by The Graveyard Book. The whole thing felt like a bunch of disjointed short stories... and then I found that they actually were! Short stories published individually later compiled into a single book. 
 There were some nice points to the story and interesting characters but everything was way too simple for me. Perhaps some of the unresolved points of the story will go over kids' heads but I couldn't stop feeling like details were missing. 
 Maybe I'll give a chance to some of Gaiman's adult books and see how that goes.
