Books, Anansi Boys, by Neil Gaiman

3 days ago by Cams

Anansi Boys Neil Gaiman I first became aware of Neil Gaiman a couple of years back when he was a panelist on Cranky Geeks. His novels and he are mentioned a lot on a few of the podcasts that I listen to and I decided to give Anansi Boys a try. I got the audiobook from audible and this one is narrate ...

What I’ve Read

5 days ago by Trae

So I’ve been meaning to post the books I’ve read lately but haven’t gotten around to it. So here they finally are in honor of the new year, the books that I have read and what I thought about them.

Reality Check: The Night and Neil Gaiman

10 days ago by Murray

In the past month, I’ve been on a Neil Gaiman kick. And quite the kick it has been. Neil Gaiman is not everyone’s cup of tea, but if you are interested in visits to and from the graveyard or simply to and from your everyday alternate reality, then Gaiman’s intoxicating brews may well be for you. My ...

Anansi Boys By Neil Gaiman

67 days ago by Donna

This was definitely an interesting read and I’m glad I listened to those that recommended this book. While I may not have seen it in Stardust, I can see why people consider Gaiman a fantasy god. His writing, when he’s not trying to write in a specific style (I was told Stardust read like it did beca ...

Sad the news that the 11th Doctor is now on his way To usurping the Tardis with companions new and d’verse. Just a few specials before Tennant goes on his merry way To other projects, other lands, and other roles. I would call his portrayal of the Time Lord my favorite But have I in fact on real fra ...

Book Review: Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman

77 days ago by LaShawn

So after this year of reading books for weeks, maybe months at a time, I finally get Neil Gaiman’s Anansi Boys and what do I do? I devour it in a week. It sucks because this was a book I wanted to read slowly. Getting a Gaiman book is always a treat, and I’ve been wanting to read this one for a long ...

Book Review - Anansi Boys by Neil Gaimen

89 days ago by spitzit

Published in 2005, Anansi Boys spins a web (pun definitely intended) about a shy Londoner, Fat Charlie, whose father dies and he later finds out his old man was actually a god and that he has a long lost brother that evidently inherited all all the cool genetic god powers from their old man. I had n ...

Time for another Tag Mash using the accumulated tagging intelligence at LibraryThing. When I did the tag mash of “favorite, weird, mystery” , I was thinking more along the lines of “weird mystery” - talking goldfish witness the crime! the victim isn’t dead, just messing with quantum physics! - rathe ...

The Corrections by Jonathan Franzen This was recommended by my coworker, who has excellent taste in literature. When I first picked up The Corrections, I had a hard time getting into it. It was slow and I didn’t find myself liking Chip, the first character. I stalled in my progress, and moved onto s ...
