This was a good read - not as good as Neverwere, which is the book that I judge all Gaiman's books by, but still enjoyable. I'm not sure that I really understood what the 'Jack of All Trades' really were, or why they were after Bod, but it made a good plot. I too liked the way he interacted with the ghosts and tried to look after the graveyard in his own way - so sad in the last chapter (won't give anything away!). I had to smile at the way Bod would argue with his history teachers and the way he dealt with the school bullies. Overall, an enjoyable read, but not one I would necessarily read again.

MERRY CHRISTMAS
Here’s a special box of goodies from one booklover to another. I hope you enjoy reading your books and enjoying the Christmas candy.
HAVE A GREAT FESTIVE SEASON

Thanks very much dark-draco for this Christmas present, I can't wait to read this and enjoy some of the goodies you sent my way.

I'm finally getting round to reading this book, I've read the first chapter on my commute this morning and I really enjoyed it.

A very entertaining read about a boy called Bod, who lives in a Graveyard with his adoptive parents who happen to be Ghosts and his Guardian and protector Silas. It’s fun, dark, humorous, mystical and fantastical. A must for any Gaiman fan or fan of fantasy fiction.

Thanks again dark-draco for sharing this with me. I'm going to give this to KT-J to read before we plan where it goes next.

Thanks Stubee. I've got a couple of books in my next up list then I'll get onto this!
