100% will recommend. This book was delightful to listen to on Audiobook and was read by Eddie Redmayne. Each purchase makes a donation to Lumos and Comic Relief.

Another miss for me, maybe I just flat out don't like Gaiman's writing. I thought this novel was boring, and I listened to the audiobook. I know Gaiman narrated the audiobook, but his voice got so whiny, I almost didn't finish it. Sadly, I did, and I'm glad I was just driving listening to it, and not wasting my free time.
Sorry, not sorry about the low rating.

Okay so i have a very important question to ask to all bookworms: What is your medium of choice and why?

Paperback, hardback, e-book, audiobook etc? What's your preference?

Print - paperback but it's just much cheaper to go ebooks these days and I have no book shelves. Currently use kindle unlimited

Paperbacks, I’d much rather flip physical pages of a book but ebooks are more convenient and cheaper

I listened to the audiobook version and got completely engrossed in Laia and Elias's world. The story, the action, and the characters were great! I can't wait for the next book!

Loved this book! Had the audiobook as well and listening to Yahtzee do all the voices just made it even better!

Highly recommend if you like Zero Punctuation or video games in general!

Okay, this book is easily taking my best of the year humor & biography. Anna Kendrick wrote this book just like she tweets. It's hilarious and extremely entertaining.

I listened to the audiobook and I was not disappointed. Anna Kendrick reads it herself and is just amazing. He stories were thought provoking, humorous, a tad embarrassing, and just a great read.

If you're looking for a great audiobook/book, this is for you. I was laughing constantly and I could not put it down.
