Everyone on the planet should read this book.

It’s nice to have the whole story in one place.

I’m glad to see stories with nonwestern fairy tales as a base and non white characters in the mainstream. Gaiman wasn’t the first, but hopefully, he’ll inspire others to realize that there are a world of stories out there.

A bit uneven in parts, but fun overall

I didn’t follow my teacher’s instructions of reading it out loud, so it made no sense to me

I love this manga! Well, at least the next volume comes out the day after my birthday.

The plotline is a little overstuffed, but it more than makes up for it in humor.

I loved the prose and the gritty episodic nature of the Messanger and Nothing to get Alarmed About, but the Wig confused me, and Nothing to Get Alarmed About had some mysogynistic parts, which I understand, the 70s,blah blah blah, but not enough to really forgive that flaw.

It’s good for people who enjoy stories about hustlers, the underworld, and also want to see a slice of the New York life 30 or 40 years ago. The perspective of a black gay man was also done well, I thought.

This book is amazing. It’s easy to jump in, even if you’ve only read the first book of the trilogy(I couldn’t find the 2nd book in the library in English) Even though at times there are long conversations about politics which leave me cold, the human drama of this extended family kept me reading.

I am tempted to be like ha ha, I got this book, and didn’t have to deal with the evil people at Kinkos. Even though it is out of print, you can still buy a used copy from amazon.com or powells.com or any place else you can think of.
