When I first marked this book as “currently reading” I found that I'd already marked it read and given in 5 stars. So either there was a glitch or I lied to GR because I have never read this book, which is weird because it's Gaiman and it's definitely I book I know I'd like, but never got around to it until I started see cast photos of the upcoming American Gods series and decided I should read the book so I know what to be excited about. But then everyone had the same idea I guess so I waited quite a while for this book to come in on hold, but I finally got it! Success!

And my lying self from the past was correct in thinking that I'd rate this book 5 stars so here's to her. This book was great. It was exactly what I thought it would be, and I was expecting it to be lovely and weird and beautiful and gross and scary and kind and cruel. I'm very happy that I've read this book now, and I'm extra excited about the series!
