The Graveyard Book and The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
Both great books!
Love almost everything he does!
Literally opened the post to comment the exact same thing! ???
@Kaitlin I just bought the Graveyard Book!
You won’t regret it. It’s beyond brilliant!
When it rains by Lisa De Jong, It’s a real tear jerker though.|
The Long Walk by Stephen King, Cell is another good one.
Ink and Blood by Lisa Unger. Crazy Love You, is good one too.
The last book in the universe. I loved it as a kid and I appreciate it even more as an adult. The characters and the world they inhabit just draw you in.
