I decided that the time had come to read this in preparation for the Starz series, which looks amazing. I'll start by saying that I really liked this book, although I don't think that it has tipped The Graveyard Book out of it's Numero Uno spot as my favorite Gaiman. One of the most noteworthy thing...
I really loved this so much! What a brilliant fantasy adventure! The pacing of the story is very leisurely, not rushing to info-dump or over explain anything. Most of the time I had no idea WTF was going on, but that didn't matter at all, because I was enjoying the journey of finding out so much!I a...
I finished and I have no idea what to say about this book. It's been reviewed thousands of times. It was amazing, Gaiman is genius world twister. But..... I had some issues with the characters, they were fantastically written that wasn't it. It was just them, I wouldn't want to hang out with most of...
I enjoyed this book. Within the first fifteen or twenty percent, I kept pausing and thinking to myself, “This is really good!” I lost some momentum after that, which I think is mostly the fault of my work schedule. I was working long and strange hours to support a project, and there was actually ...
American Gods is pretty much everything I expected from Neil Gaiman. It's a bit of a crisis for me, I am a writer after all, and I don't have a lot to add to what has already been said, but I'll add this piece to the pile. If you are familiar with his writing or have already heard of this book secon...
This book took me a while. I think like a month and a half. I had to renew it from the library about 4 times, which isn't something I've had to do before. So it was a bit of a journey. But I made it through and I'm glad I did. So let's get into this. For those who don't know, American Gods is abo...
This is the second Neil Gaiman book I've read this year and I'm just not sure how I feel about him. I loved The Graveyard Book but I've felt a bit unsure about the two I've read year. But I'm also not sure why I didn't love this book. I think for me it was just a bit to meandering, because I loved...
Whew. Okay. Some of my very favorite people LOVE Neil Gaiman and especially American Gods. I've been trying and failing to make my way through it for years. But I've finally done it. I've finally read the whole thing. And... I just... y'all, I'm just not a Gaiman Gal. I can absolutely appreciate h...
I’m one of those readers that is lukewarm on Neil Gaiman. I passionately love some of his work, but some of his work just leaves me cold. It always strikes me as not as ground breaking or cutting as it wants you to think it is, if you know what I mean. Now, don’t get me wrong. G...
I read the tenth anniversary edition which includes material that didn't make the cut before. This book is so interesting that I was speeding through it, but then I forced myself to slow down because it's details are amazing. This is a novel that I don't think will ever leave from my mind. What g...
