Man...if I could have dinner with any author...Neil Gaiman's would have to be one I'd consider. 
 In typical Gaiman fashion, it's a long game story with some creepy and weird paranormal characters and plot. I think this would've been a fantastic book for me when I was younger so I could've associated with the main character more. 
 I love the family he finds and creates. Not everyone is born and raised in a situation with such a devoted support system build into your blood family so you make your own. 
 I knew Mr. Frost was involved and I feel like that was the beauty of this book. It's something I could see kids finding scary but I could see adults enjoying it and having the ability to foresee things a paragraph before they happen. 
 I really want to get my hands on the graphic novel version now. The full cast audiobook was fantastic!
