This was just a really short little read in between things. I've been reading a bunch of books about Norse Mythology (I didn't credit any of them in the 2015 reading because I mostly skimmed them for the good bits and by 'good bits' I mean the parts about Loki) and this one is said to be the end-all-be-all of the tales of the gods.
Some of it can be a little confusing. I wish there were a timeline I could follow just straight forward instead of different tales that go over multiple time periods in one story, but that might be a bit much to ask for when thinking about Mythology. I like hearing about the things the gods did and the shenanigans they got themselves into by being stupid. It was a fun read.
I don't really know what I am going to read next, but I have some ideas.

2015 Reading: The Fermata
So, I think this book came up as a recommendation when I finished reading Crash. And now I know why.
The description immediately caught my attention and I knew it would be right up my alley. I also knew that it would be hell to get. I had to inter-library loan it from a college in Alabama because NO ONE had it.
This man has problems. However, I can't say that I wouldn't do some of the things he does if given the opportunity. Plus, you have to admit, he could have done a lot worse with this unique power of his. I don't even known what I would do if I had the ability to stop time. I like to think that the novelty of seeing people naked would wear off after a while and get kind of boring. Not for this guy, though.
This book took forever to finish because I finally got put on full-time at work and I am attempting to start exercising.
I don't know what's coming next, but we'll see.
