I read The Graveyard Book a few years back and found it unique and delightful. When I found that it was adapted to a Graphic Novel, I couldn‘t resist.
This has all the charm of the book, with the added bonus of a visual guide. Each chapter is illustrated by different illustrators, whom kept to the same theme. But the individuality is there; making this again something so very unique that comparison is absurd and impossible.
I adore Gaiman's work!

katy4peas Oh! Wow! I love the book. Will have to look for this one! 😮 4y

As always, with all Neil Gaiman books I've read: I loved it. I have to admit that I bought this ebook a while back by accident thinking is the actual book not the illustrated version but I am happy I did. Loved the drawings, loved the way the “real“ book was “translated“ to comic book format. A definite pick - in fact, I am now getting ready to buy the full illustrated version, I gotta have the book in my hands.

claudiuo @TheAromaOfBooks Another #BookSpinBonanza finished out of order. I say this with every finished book but have to do it: thank you so much for organizing this group and the bookspins. I haven't finished so many books on my TBR list in... never. (edited) 4y

Reviewsbylola No arguing with that! My 7 yo asked for a flashlight in bed the other night so she could read. There was no way I was turning that one down! 4y
julesG @Reviewsbylola Secretly reading by flashlight after lights out is one of those things every child should have done at least once. We've already left that phase behind, both kids are in their double digits now. I gave both a reading light for Christmas; the ones you can clip onto the book. 4y
AlaMich Neil Gaiman himself reads the audio version, if your kid wanted to practice his English listening comprehension. Gaiman does an amazing job. 4y
julesG @AlaMich Thanks! I know. I've tried to talk my son into a) reading the novel version in German, b) in English, c) try the audiobook version. He's hellbent on getting the graphic novel from the library over and over. 🙄 4y

Third book for #MrBook1InAMillion done 👻
I really enjoyed this book. It's about a boy named Nobody, Bod for short, whose family is murdered and he ends up being raised in a graveyard by ghosts and a vampire.

This book was interesting. It's about a boy who escaped death when he was a baby and was raised in a graveyard by ghosts and a vampire. 95% of the illustrations were great! 5% of the one story made the boy look weird but I digress. I liked reading about the adventures of Bod and looking forward to reading the next volume.

If it has Neil Gaiman‘s name on it, I will read it. And I think publishers are figuring out that I am not alone. So they adapt EVERYTHING of his into graphic novel form. Even when it doesn‘t add anything. I LOVE The Graveyard Book. It is amazing. This is just okay. It is missing the nuance and language that make the book so special. If the art were perfection, that might still work. But the art doesn‘t add to the story here. Stick with the novel.

DivineDiana Good to know! 🙂 5y

#BlackCatChallenge Day 5: For those who may not be in the know, there is a 2-volume graphic novel adaptation of The Graveyard Book, the first book that came to mind with the #Cemetery prompt. As Silas, the undead pointed out, the Owenses can not be left on their own to raise Nobody Owens: it will take a graveyard. My full review here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-ajZ

Interesting graphic novel story. I thought it was neat how each chapter was illustrated by different artists; though I liked Kevin Nowlan‘s (Chapter 1) the best. Story wise, I didn‘t care for the lose ends left dangling, but I know there‘s a follow up book that hopefully takes care of those.

Louise Follow-up book? Pray tell! Or does the graphic novel not cover the whole story the way the original book does? (edited) 6y
monkeygirlsmama @Louise I‘ve never read the novel, but as for the graphic novel this is just volume 1. There‘s a second volume which I‘m hoping ties things up better. 6y
Louise Ah. I'm guessing it takes 2 graphic novels to cover the original novel, in that case. Too bad! I'd love to read a sequel to the novel! 6y
monkeygirlsmama @Louise Sorry I got your hopes up! 😩 6y
Louise Don't worry! I hear tell he's working on a sequel to Neverwhere! 🎉🎉🎉 6y

Volume one? Vol. 1. Where is vol. 2, Libby!?! I discovered, after finishing vol. 1 of the graphic novel, that there is no vol. 2 in my Libby or my CloudLibrary reader. I feel like all three of The Three Stooges (slapping myself and poking my own eyes out). I am not buying books, no matter how charming, due to mounting veterinary bills. Maybe I'll read the real book. IDK.

Graphic novel adaptation of Gaiman's book. I haven't read the novel, so I'm unable to make a comparison, but I am enjoying the story & the artwork. Immediately interested in the story & continued to hold my interest.

Moray_Reads Love the cover, Silas's cloak is very cool 7y
Leniverse I've read both and found it a very good adaptation of the novel. Having a new artist with every chapter was a bit strange though. So many of the characters are supposed to be unchangeable but they kept looking different. 7y
Texreader Loved the book and would love to read the graphic novel. 7y

The graphic novel version of a favorite book!

Texreader I think I must read this. I'm not a graphic novel person , but this book seems to just lend itself to be drawn and colored. 7y
Nebklvr @Texreader I prefer an actual book, but I am trying to broaden my reading horizons. 7y
Texreader @Nebklvr I read Ghost the graphic novel. It took all of 20 minutes. It was very cute though. I guess it could help increase my reading numbers. Well I love this book so I do think I have to try the graphic novel. 7y
Nebklvr @Texreader A lot of our reluctant readers read graphics. They love to talk about these 7y

So, I knew that I would be back at the comic store before the weekend is over. After taking forever to make a choice I decided on this one. I haven't read any Neil Gaiman yet (I know shame on me) so I'm quite excited to get this one started.
