    How dare you put Neverwhere at the bottom! Noooo! Lol.🤣 Neverwhere is one of my favorite books, its been a year or two since I've read it (I usually re-read it every few years or so). I've read all of these and I think my order would be - 1. Neverwhere 2. Stardust 3. Good Omens 4. Ocean at the End of the Lane 5. Ananzi Boys (gonna have to re-read this one its been years). 6. American Gods. Great video! 🙂📚

      I mean, they are all good, but it is just a matter of preference at this point. lol It was really good to re-read them all and just see how my thoughts had changed, if at all. Thanks for watching! And for ranking them yourself. :)

      @@Man-With-a-Hat-Who-Reads I’d be curious to see if my order changed on re-reading all of them. I haven’t re-read any except Neverwhere and some of those it’s been years. This was a cool video idea!

    I’ve only read Neverwhere and Ocean. Personally I really loved Ocean a lot, but I agree with you about Neverwhere. It’s ok but I wasn’t crazy blown away or anything.

      It just might be that Neverwhere, being his first, didn't come out as good. He has only improved as a writer over the year which might be why Ocean feels so great!! Thanks for watching! :)

    American Gods is my favourite Gaiman novel. I agree it does get a bit slow paced toward the middle but I still loved it and have read it three times. Have you ever read his novel The Graveyard Book or his Sandman comic series?
    My favourite re-read this year was To Your Scattered Bodies Go by Philip Jose Farmer.

      It always was my favorite, but the lull in the middle just seemed more noticeable this time around. I did read 'The Graveyard Book' and enjoyed it. I want to read Sandman at some point but have never gotten around to it. Maybe someday.
      Never heard of 'To Your Scattered Bodies Go' but from reading a synopsis, it sounds interesting. Thanks for watching! :)

      That is cool!! I don't have any Gaiman's that could be considered rare, but that sounds neat. Thanks for watching!! :)
