TBR
My TBR is too monstrous, so I have been listening to the audio versions of many of those books to help whittle it down. Just finished ear-reading this book, and what a fantastic story it was! I loved the ideas of Gods being brought to America by immigrants, and the "new" Gods (media, tv, etc)... Gods and Legends abound in this story..
