review 1: How to Talk to Girls at Parties by Neil Gaiman "A short story from New York Times bestselling author, Neil Gaiman. Plus an excerpt from his new novel, The Ocean at the End of the Lane." It is quite a quick read talking about a boy trying to interact with girls in a random party that he and his friend goes to. I quite enjoyed it, I love Neil Gaiman's writing style and it had quite a few quotable moments, but I though it was a little to short, and also it ended in quite an open ending, which in this case I didn't enjoyed that much.
review 2: Way too manic pixie dream girl for me. I've read both Stardust and Ocean at the End of the Lane, and while in those books, the trope worked because eventually they came to be real people, it didn't really work in this. I enj... moreoyed the subplot with Vic far more than the protagonists awkwardness with these dreamlike girls. I suppose it just wasn't long enough to be fully developed but I did still enjoy Gaiman's writing, as usual. less
