Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

I watched the movie first, and I found the book to be less dark than the movie, although the general mood was pretty sombre. The religious aspect of the story was played up a lot, and I finished the book feeling as if there was a lot of symolism I'd missed. Oh well; I enjoyed it nonetheless.

This book was written in the style of fairy tales, which is to say that it gives the impression of being translated from some European language.

I wish I'd read this before I watched the movie because I kept expecting things from the movie to happen, and some of them totally didn't. Regardless, it's totally cute fairytale story not for kids and plus it's Neil Gaiman and I love Neil Gaiman! Thanks Cheyenne, for sharing this book with me.
