so-so3 Stars • In Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman, Fat Charlie Nancy learns his late father was Anansi, the trickster god. His charming brother Spider, who inherited divine powers, disrupts Fat Charlie‘s quiet life. As they navigate family secrets, ancient gods, and a vengeful Tiger, Fat Charlie discovers his own powers and reconciles with Spider in a humorous, mythical tale of identity and family.

People believe, thought Shadow. It‘s what people do. They believe. And then they will not take responsibility for their beliefs; they conjure things, and do not trust the conjurations. People populate the darkness; with ghosts, with gods, with electrons, with tales. People imagine, and people believe: and it is that belief, that rock-solid belief, that makes things happen.

Finished reading #americangods and now I‘m reading #anansiboys ! I think I‘m liking Anansi boys more! It‘s a fun read!
I finished listening to #anansiboys on #audible tonight and my next #tbrjarpick that my #tbrjar just picked for me is from #audible and it‘s called Evil Eye by #madhurishekar. This audiobook is an #audibleoriginal. It sounds interesting.
pick5 🌟 I loved this as I love all Gaiman books. This is definitely up there as one of my favourites though, which means it‘s in the top 10 (Gaiman has so many amazing books and I haven‘t even gotten into the graphic novels yet). 🤣😂🤣 Truthfully, I haven‘t read American Gods yet, but I do know this is from that world. I fully intend to rectify that situation as quickly as possible.

I‘m just inhaling this book. It is SO good. It makes me want to read American Gods even more. 🤞🏻Fingers crossed I have the $10.81 to get it when I get paid in two days.🤞🏻

Not a fan of spiders but a huge fan of Gaiman, so I‘m trusting him in this one. I know I should read American Gods first, must I won‘t have that until the end of the week and I need something to lighten the mood from my nonfiction afternoon (thus far), and no one but Gaiman can bring me joy while I recover from my adventures with Kvothe (I do love him and I would totally have his ginger babies - just sayin).
