Weirdness and Feelings and The Not-Quite-Right

I love how Neil Gaiman writes, I can't help myself. Almost evasive as if he tries to describe the thing just a little on the left and behind what's happening and somehow it works in the end. Usually, I am not really one for short stories but 'Fragile Things' has a bit of everything. Ghosts, aliens, creepy people, wholesome meetings and unholy meetings, you name it. My favourite will forever be 'Instructions' though, which is a surprise to me because I am not really one for poetry. Also something Neil Gaiman knows how to do: Taking people (me) on a journey to fairyland.

The shortstory about Shadow made the fourth star! I admit I like his novels better than the shotstories.

This collection of short stories was a really good listen, my favorites are: "A Study in Emerald", "October in the Chair", "The Flints of Memory Lane", "Instructions", "The Day the Saucers Came" "Other People" and "Sunbird".The others are also really good, but these ones stuck out to me the most. I will definitely listen to those again, especially because Neil Gaiman reads them himself and I just love the way he narrates.
