Why Oh Why?


I'm really going to try this challenge. I may be setting myself up for failure but hey! nothing ventured nothing gained. Besides, now that I mostly serve adult readers I may as well get with the program and read some big people books that I've been wanting to get to for a while.
Here are my first 3 of 12:
Matisse the Master by Hilary Spurling (Costa/Whitbread 2005)--This because I love this artist and because the subtitle the conquest of color just got my heart racing
American Gods by Neil Gaiman (Hugo Award 2002)--who needs an excuse to read Neil Gaiman?
Little,Big by John Crowley (World Fantasy Award 1982) I think fuse#8 or someone mentioned this one and I bought it in paperback. Now I have permission to read it.
