I’ve started listening to Neil Gaiman’s “author’s preferred text” of American Gods, something I last read when it first came out in 2001, but I’m not sure if I will finish it before the end of the year. I mentioned in an earlier post my 6 favorite reads from 2014. And I’ve already got quite a few books that I’m looking forward to in 2015.
