Evergreen replied to Evergreen's discussion Author / Book suggestions?"I have! I read that before I read American Gods actually, and you're right, its damned brilliant. I'm currently reading Neverwhere and enjoying it immensely, especially as I live in London :)"
orion732 replied to Evergreen's discussion Author / Book suggestions?"If you haven't already, you should definitely read the super co-authored "Good Omens", by Neil Gaiman AND Terry Pratchett. It's super funny, intelligent, and thought-provoking. It is easily one of the best books ever."

- About Me:
- I live in Roehampton in London, and I like all things timey-wimey! Quantum physics and string theory and the grandfather paradox and all that malarky, plus of course Doctor Who. I find happiness in the small things and love to have as many new experiences and adventures as possible. I'm studying to be a counsellor, eventually as a youth counsellor and then maybe move to Canada!
- Favorite Books, Movies, Music, and more
