Review title: Yeah, it's bad.
Product review: Just thought I would throw my lot in with the negative reviews here. I read constantly, and can probably count on two hands the books I started but never finished. American Gods finds a place on that prestigous list. As others have noted, the main character is unrealistic and poorly developed, the storyline wanders, events lack punch, the personification of the gods seem inappropriate. I found the little back-story exerpts of old gods out of place and awkward. And after reading that the ending is a let-down, the only good thing about this book is that I didn't waste the time finishing it.
