Here are reviews for the books I read in July that I didn’t have time or energy to do a full review on. Note: I was out of work in July so I read a lot. The Woman in Cabin 10 *** Read this while on a cruise ship and it definitely gave me some interesting feelings! A relatively entertaining thriller. I’d read another Ruth Ware book but wouldn’t rush out to do so From Crook to Cook: Platinum Recipes From Tha Boss Dogg’s Kitchen**** […]

“My heart is so much more than it once was, even if it now beats outside my chest.”

The Witch's Heart by Genevieve Gornichec

July 29, 2021 by Mobius_Walker 2 Comments

BINGO – MYTHIC Angrboda is a thrice burned witch, and a thrice survived witch at that. She once was a seer for the gods, but she was ultimately burned for refusing to tell Odin, king of the gods, of knowledge beyond what anyone should know. After burning thrice and surviving, she escapes to the woods but leaves her heart on the pyre. She finds a cave and makes a home for herself. She strikes up a friendship and trading partnership with a giantess name Skadi […]

“But. My hammer,” said Thor.

Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

April 9, 2017 by borisanne Leave a Comment

Before I read it, it felt like I’d been waiting for Norse Mythology my entire life. In the sense that I wanted it so badly the minute that I heard that it was coming. So, oops. It’s fine, but it’s not, like, life-alteringly amazingly incredible. I could have waited another minute before reading it. Taken a breath. Read something else. Taken this to the beach. Which isn’t to say it’s not a delight, it’s just that it doesn’t take a thing and change everything you’ve […]

More mythology please

Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

March 19, 2017 by CoffeeShopReader Leave a Comment

This is a good retelling of some of the basic elements of Norse mythology, but it felt a little light and incomplete to me. I was hoping for a fuller presentation of the whole saga, which granted would make this book twice or thrice as long as it is. For example, there is very little about the lady goddesses, some of whom do have their own stories. There’s a note in the introduction about how many Norse stories have been lost, which is true of […]

Fortunately, I am mighty!

Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

February 6, 2017 by kdm 14 Comments

IT’S HERE! IT’S HERE!! IT’S FINALLY HERE!!! *Ahem* Apologies, but I have a lot of feelings about Neil Gaiman’s books, and it seems like this one was announced 742 years ago. However, I got my hands on it a week and half before the official release date, because I’m bullshit lucky and someone at my local bookstore put it on the shelves early. One of my favourite books in recent years was Philip Pullman’s retelling of some classic fairy tales, Fairy Tales from the Brothers […]
