Carrie's review
American Gods by Neil Gaiman (Goodreads author!)
I've always enjoyed mythology, so I found this book particularly enjoyable. Gaiman populates his story with gods and demigods from all of the big-name pantheons, and throws in some more obscure ones for good measure. It's great fun figuring out who some of them are. On top of that, it's a good story, where nothing is ever as it appears to be.
