Yeah, I really enjoyed American Gods. I didn't expect to, for some reason. It was the first Neil Gaiman book I read. It pushes a lot of my buttons, I think, and then there's the fun of spotting the Gods. I'm just fascinated with the idea of plucking bits of mythology out of the ether and twisting and moulding them into something new but strangely familiar. Heh, how's that for incoherence? Plus I'm in love with the thought of all these old gods hanging around driving taxis and stuff.

So what was this fabulously meta thing you stayed up reading? I used to read a lot of meta stuff, but now I often tend to lose concentration.
