American Gods by Neil Gaiman

DNF: Boring. Slow. Pointless. I tried to persevere and I got told “it’s been a year, put it down!” By three friends. THREE.

I tried. But it’s a no.

I just... I can't do this. I don't care about this AT ALL.

Interesting plot and fascinating world building, just as you'd expect from Gaiman.



In a world where all the Gods in human history came to America with the people that believed in them. Not only are they alive, roaming the country and socializing with humans, they're also trying to prove their relevance in a war with the new gods of TV, Media, and the Internet. All fighting over our attention, love, and devotion.
