You seem to comment a lot about a book that you profess is pointless. Just wondering ...

That's cos I admire Neil Gaiman but detest American gods.
Capisce?

That's so funny, it's my favourite and I don't care much for the others!

It's all perspective. I loved AG, and couldn't even finish NW.

Ironicironi, LOL. Just LOL.
You're right about perspective. I couldn't finish Fragile Things (how does one NOT finish a collection of short stories??) and yet I blazed through Anansi Boys. I finished American gods and hated it so much I wanted to shoot Gaiman. And I read Neverwhere and when I finished, for a while, I thought Gaiman was a god.
Perspective ☺
Your name is cool BTW. Did you come up with it yourself?

I agree with you. I loved Neverwhere, the Graveyard Book, Stardust, even Anasi Boys (a sequel to A.G. but you don't need to have read A.G. first. I HATED American Gods, although I liked Shadow.

Thanx Bethann.
Meanwhile, why do you say Anansi Boys is sequel to American gods?

Because Neil Gaiman says so, and it clearly is. It follows what happens to Mr. Nancy/Anansi after the end of AG.

🤣 While never where was alright I hope you mature into the ‘point’ of Gaiman’s more adult books
