Anansi Boys by Neil Gaiman! What a Book!

[@samuelbird7151]

Anansi Boys is the sequel to American Gods, American gods is fantastic

[@DrunkoDurko]

Niiice! Brilliant

[@PBDot]

You may enjoy The Girl Who Could Move Sh*T With Her Mind. It's a nice breezy read, although I guess it's more low-key contemporary Sci-Fi than Urban Fantasy per see.

[@becomingabookworm]

Oh! Nice title! I will check it out. Thanks for the recommendation!

[@harvibahia7987]

I really enjoyed this review please keep up the reading reviews also I recommend Enders game

[@becomingabookworm]

Happy you liked it and thanks for the recommendation. I recognize the name of the book but don´t know more about it. Will have to check out :)

[@foxredt2]

I recommend the series by Kevin hearne called the Iron Druid chronicles

[@becomingabookworm]

Thanks! Have not heard about that One!

[@foxredt2]

@@becomingabookworm Another good Urban Fantasy is the Rivers of London series by Ben Aaronovitch. Espesically the first three books. But Kevin Hearne is my favorite. The Iron Druide series is linked to the different true religions were old norse gods but also greek, roman and irish gods play a role. Even Jesus XD. Neal Gaimans American Gods has similar "god-physics" but otherwise has a different story telling style. I Like both Styles. I first read American Gods and now Anansi Boys (half way through).

[@becomingabookworm]

I have read the two first ones in Rivers of London and I liked them both very much! Will check out Hearne :) Hope you like Anansi Boys!

Loved this book

[@becomingabookworm]

Oh yes!

[@LunaciaBooks]

I love Neil Gaiman's stories! I find it surprising that you were recommended to read Anansi Boys before American Gods, though, as Anansi Boys is kind of a spin off of American Gods. So, yes, go read American Gods! 😉😁

[@becomingabookworm]

I think it might be because my friend thought Anansi Boys is funnier. I bought American Gods last week, so it will happen :)!

[@LunaciaBooks]

@@becomingabookworm I have read it three or four times, and love it, but my favourite Gaiman is "Neverwhere".

[@becomingabookworm]

@@LunaciaBooks Nice! I actually found Neverwhere at a flea market yesterday, so that one is also on my list :)

[@LunaciaBooks]

@@becomingabookworm Awesome!

[@star4ana]

I NEED AN ANSWER FAST, THE BOOK OF 'ANANSIS BOYS' CAN IT BE READ BY 13-14 YEAR OLD CHILDREN??? PLEASE REPLY

[@becomingabookworm]

According to the almighty internet «interest level» grade 9-12. I can not decide if it is suitable for kids that age 😅

[@star4ana]

@@becomingabookworm ok, so according to your opinion I can read it, if I'm 13-14 years old? Pls respond!!🥺

[@jojnash1]

The Anansi is a Ghanaian folktales we used to be told when were kids. I can recite all the stories of Anansi now you guys have stole it and making it your own story? What a shame!!

[@becomingabookworm]

Thank you for your comment. Im sorry you feel that way. I can’t fully understand what that is like, but in general I like the concept of sharing ones stories. I live in Norway and Gaiman has also written books about norse gods and that I find only interesting. Have you read the book? If so, is there any of the folktales that are also told in the book? Or what are the commen features between the book and the folktales? Would be interesting to know. Have a nice day.
