Oh the thrill of getting into a new author.
And dude, look at how porny even the most innocent sentences can sound sometimes!
Well it's official, I'm finally completely seeing the Neil Gaiman love. And okay, I never doubted his genius or anything but I wasn't there yet with the fangirling. Back when I decided to try his Sandman series, I did enjoy it but not as much as I would have if it had been a novel as opposed to a comic. See, it's not that I need the words without the graphic since hi, I'm a huge fan of manga but like I said back then, comics just don't do it for me as a rule and it's like I knew I had the potential for becoming a true Neil Gaiman fan but I needed the right material in the form of his novels - and dude, I knew it would click!
American Gods is amazing, it's like poetry in motion or something; haunting and compelling and mystical and witty and so smart and just, wow! I started it last night and I'm already 145 pages into it - couldn't keep my eyes open after a while - because I was so completely engrossed in it that I didn't want to put it down *kisses![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
french_hobbit again for the wonderful pressie* I'm truly, completely hooked and I love the way Neil Gaiman writes, the way he thinks and yeah okay, I'm starting a Gaiman collection NOW!
Next in line is Good Omens - I also started reading Terry Pratchett so it's like the best timing ever - and Neverwhere, as well as Anansi Boys, I think. After that, well we'll see :-) I'll go to Paris and see whether I can find the books, otherwise, I'll go in an purchase frenzy over at amazon *bounces*
I was going to keep with my reading the book today but I was hit with a Numb3rs bunny so I had to take care of that. I'm 1000+ words into it and hopefully it'll turn into an actual fic. Midway through the story, it started becoming different from what I thought it would be when I wrote the first sentence so we'll see how it turns out. In any case, I'm writing something and it feels good *g*
Finally, my SPN download is kinda crawling - though it's going faster than the first torrent I picked - and man! I don't know whether I want to click on the cuts on my flist or not. Spoil myself silly or not spoil myself silly, that is the question, hee!
