Read MoreAmerican Gods
American Gods, a novel by Neil Gaiman is one of my favorite books in the world. As a matter of fact, my original copy of both American Gods and it’s sequel Anansi Boys are both in pretty bad shape. That’s perfectly alright though. Books are meant to be read, and there’s nothing better than a…
