A review by kandisteiner
American Gods by Neil Gaiman

5.0

Gah, this book was so refreshing! I don't typically read outside of the romance genre, but when I do, it's always a treat. And this book came HIGHLY recommended to me from some of my close friends.

When I dived in, I was immediately hooked. The way the author writes is captivating. There is an element of mystery and uneasiness, as well as dashes of humor, and overall, the feeling that something big is coming. I love that! The foreshadowing as the story built had me amped up, and when I got to the last 100 pages, it was impossible to put down.

My best advice is to go into this book blind. It's going to take you on a wild ride, opening your mind to a slew of "what if" questions as you look back on America's history through a new lens.

Absolutely enthralling. 5 stars!
