Neverwhere

By Neil Gaiman...I have read other books by Neil Gaiman...some with great anticipation.  This was not one of them.  Recommended by a teen...and my husband who LOVES this author, I read it to kill time on an airplane until the 10,000 feet mark so I could read by Kindle.  It turns out that while I wasn't totally hooked on the book I could not put it down.  I simply had to know what was happening next.  Richard has recently moved to London.  Richard is a normal guy, recently engaged and lives a very normal life.  One evening he gets into a disagreement with his fiancee and sees a girl who is dressed bizarrely and helps her.  Because of this help he is no longer visible to those who knew him...and he ends up in the world under London.  Much adventure begins.  I liked the book, but admit it isn't for everyone!
