The Graveyard Book
Sorry Mr. Gaiman, I tried twice to read this book, but I just couldn't do it. I borrowed it in print format, but just couldn't get it into, so I returned it to the library. Then I tried it on audio (and it's read by the author, which is usually the BEST) but still couldn't get into the story. The storyline is interesting enough (a boy who grows up in a graveyard) but I found that there were just too many characters for me to be able to follow along, so I gave up.
