I liked the ideas in American Gods, and really liked Shadow. But Anansi Boys reminded me of Westlake, only much better, and I loved the whimsy - and especially the way everything came together, where Fat Charlie had to face his fear and embarrassment of singing in public in order to save Daisy's life.Deniz Bevanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17134553551048836979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-12500344704309840942012-01-24T21:08:18.669-05:002012-01-24T21:08:18.669-05:00Which did you like better, American Gods or Anasaz...Which did you like better, American Gods or Anasazi Boys?Theresa Milsteinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03477761307315565259noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-74983570308301677152012-01-22T03:02:46.284-05:002012-01-22T03:02:46.284-05:00I recently heard an interview with him on NPR.

So far my favorite is The Graveyard Book...but Stardust is pretty rockin' too. The movie did it justice, but you should add it to your READ pile anway. =) <br /><br />(And I'm totally adding this post to my mentor linkage, kay?

So I guess the fact that Amanda said she likes to be naked is why she is naked in the bath and Neil is wearing a suit? :) I like her singing voice in particular.Neurotic Workaholichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775298184138766683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029491889310063596.post-61778177615685878272012-01-20T11:43:07.232-05:002012-01-20T11:43:07.232-05:00I met Neil and shook his hand at WFC.
