Re: “...and ordered 'A Plague Upon Our House" by Dr., Scott Atlas, my ACTUAL next book is a Neil Gaiman novel bought at a yard sale last week. It's "American Gods." It's a horror / fantasy / SF novel that won all kinds of awards (Hugo, Nebula, Bram Stoker, Locus) and accolades when it came out in 2001.”That's something I posted on October 5th. Now I've finished "American Gods," demonstrating that I'm not a very fast reader. I like to think I've got a better memory of what I've read than fast readers do, but I don't even know if that's true.

American Gods was a pretty big book, over 500 pages, and the first significant fiction I've read in a while, discounting one or two juvenile novels I read in a day or two because they were handy and I was bored. I once started "Dr. Zhivago" but was quickly bored and tossed it back. Then there was "A Tale of Two Cities," over a year ago, which I completed and wondered why I had. Next up is "A Plague Upon Our House," a much smaller book about the early pandemic, written by White House physician Scott Atlas.
