Laugh of loud funny
I have never raved about a book so much. I don't think that there is a single person who has come into my proximity that I haven't told to read this! It is sooo funny and I just couldn't put it down! The fact that it is based on the doctor's true experiences makes it even better!
I wouldn't recommend reading this in public by yourself however, especially when you are sat in the waiting room at the GP. People are likely to look at you and think you are very strange when you are full on laughing out loud with tears running down your face!

Stays true to the original material (1 more)
Actors fit the characters well
Devilishly Angelic
I was a little nervous about this one as the book it's based on is one of my all time favourite reads. However, I was very pleasantly surprised with this mini series, of course this is down to Neil Gaiman being involved in the whole project meaning that it remained true to the original material. The actors were well chosen and the young cast portraying Adam and his friends were a true pleasure to watch. All in all a great weekend watch that I thoroughly enjoyed.

This is a great book that honestly changed how I felt about comics completely. I had never really been exposed to comics outside of the weekly newspaper. Of course I knew the titles that were out there, and I did more than my fair share of watching cartoons and movies based on comic characters, but I didn't "get it." The medium was not mine. McCloud's book gave me the tools I needed to really understand the art of comics. How comics use the blending of art and written word to really present ideas in a unique way that no other art form can really do.
Reading this book opened my mind to a broad range of stories that I never would have read or even known about, some of which are among my most cherished books now.
