Neil Gaiman love
I love Neil Gaiman. My ex-boyfriend would get a kick out of the fact that I've been reading The Sandman, and I'm in love with Stardust
and Neverwhere: A Novel
. I wasn't as fond of American Gods: A Novel
as others were, but it was definitely interesting enough to hold my attention. The husband and I listened to The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish
and the other stories on that recording. I haven't read The Graveyard Book
or Anansi Boys
, but I think I've read almost everything else.
So, watch this clip, a simple trailer for Coraline, and you'll see some of why I love the man:

You know he lives somewhere near the Cities, right? The Birdchick keeps some beehives at his place and she sometimes mentions him in her blog posts (even an occasional photo)

OMG, Lenny Henry's narration of Anansi Boys is one of my all-time favorite audiobooks! I don't think I would have enjoyed it nearly as much if I'd just read it myself.
I wanted to like American Gods. But I thought it was just ok.
