"Finished Part 1 of the book. Just 2 parts plus an epilogue to go....
I am reading the 2017 revised edition; I never read the original 2001 version but may do someday.
Back at the start of this year, my wife and I pretty much "binge watched" Seasons 1 and 2 of American Gods on Amazon Prime. We watched the 3rd season unfold as it aired. It is a shame that the network canceled the show. The novel is excellent so far." — Jul 29, 2021 04:06AM

“With initial understanding, Dexter replied, “Trust me, I definitely understand. See, I can’t help myself either.” Then, his tone swinging toward anger, said, “But children, I could never do that, not like you. Never, ever kids.”

“Multiple experiments with spirit contact transmitted the name Matthew Edward Hall on several occasions. I predict this to be a very important future individual in humanities development. Possibly the second embodiment of Christ on Earth.”

“She stared up at Vader, unafraid."I hate you and everything you stand for" she said."But when I murdered, I murdered out of love"
Vader raised his blade, his breathing loud and steady. When he spoke, his voice was as deep and hollow as a funeral gong.
"I know precisely what you mean" he said and slashed.”
― Lords of the Sith

“I could recognize him by touch alone, by smell; I would know him blind, by the way his breaths came and his feet struck the earth. I would know him in death, at the end of the world.”

“White hair.
She remembers one of her bosses, a middle-aged man who used to say how he longed to see a former lover again in old age, when her hair would be feather-white. When we’re really old... when every single strand of our hair has gone white, I want to see her then, absolutely.
If there was a time when he would want to see her again, it would certainly be then.
When both young and flesh would have fallen away.
When there would be no time left for desire.
When only one thing would remain to be done once that meeting was over: to separate. To part from their own bodies, and thus to part forever.”
