What people on Hacker News said
I think lots of people will like this book, but certainly those who are into road trips across America.
And because it (perhaps accidentally) says something interesting about the gods of a land of immigrants and future-philes.
On that topic, American Gods. If I’m going to be driving, why not listen to a story about a road trip?
However, I did branch out in 2017 with "American Gods" by Neil Gaiman which I quite enjoyed until near the end where it got a little too crazy.
American Gods is awesome. One of Neil Gaiman's best works, along with the Sandman series.
