I've been listening to American Gods by Neil Gaiman. I'm not impressed so far. Anyone know if it's worth sticking with?
I didn't like it, the whole affair felt hollow, an adventure story that is a romp rather than a quest

there's this extended monologue at one point about how americanness doesn't mean anything, that weird 90s mix of ennui and contentment
-
like that "it's the end of history and now we're all just killing time" sort of attitude
-
so striking that I actually stopped in the middle of reading to check the copyright date because the tone screamed "written before 9/11"
-
sure enough, june 2001
