Welcome to Litsy!

I randomly found this while I was shelving some other YA books, and figured what the heck, it looks like everything I love about a good frivolous read. It hasn‘t disappointed so far! (It‘s a LITTLE silly, but it‘s fun!) #freya #matthewlaurence #norsemythology #reimaginedmythology #norse #vanir #goddess #norsegoddess

This was pretty good. I found it to be a quick read that stayed interesting through out. There were a couple of inconsistencies that annoyed me. They are pretty minor on the spoilers but I will post them in the comment under a spoiler tag anyway. Overall a good light read about deities dealing with the modern world.

It started out good...had a fairly decent ending...but for me fell flat through the middle. I think a lot of pages were used to say very little and then a lot was revealed at the end. Maybe it‘s like a long prologue to the next book? Not sure but something was lacking for me with this one.

Gods run on belief. No belief = weak gods. So when mankind's "Evil Incorporated" offers you a deal to bring belief in you back to it's full strength, with the only caveat being you have to work for them, do you take it? Or do you take them down? Interesting concept. Took a little while for it all to coalesce, and I'm still not quite sure if this is YA or Adult (maybe that New Adult category that didn't necessarily take off?).

I'll be finishing this soon and for some reason thought to check out the CIP page and discovered this little gem at the bottom. I love it when authors include tiny things like this that almost go unnoticed 😃

Can't find the book pictured, but I think it's the first in the series. This cover makes me think of Airhead. March 18. #coverlove #YAedition

Considering this was a Cover Buy, I was a bit concerned going in. I really wasn't disappointed, though. Some of the writing and descriptions were more vague than I would have liked, and sometimes the modern world and ancient gods came together in weird ways. I loved the story and characters, though, and enjoyed the range of gods and goddesses that were featured in the book. And I LOVED Freya herself. Definitely picking up the next book.

I love worlds where all the gods exist and they all know each other and they'll interact.

And call each other oversexed tarts.

I literally JUST learned that this is the correct version of this saying, and I'm sort of shocked (and impressed) to see it somewhere. Literally the first time I've seen it used.

Now let's see if I can get this read between work and bed. Maybe stay up a little late? Maybe start it tomorrow? I don't know.

The goddess is alive and working at a theme park and plotting how to take down an evil corporation whose mission is to subjugate gods or destroy them.

Super fun. I loved the world building. I want book 2!!!

My tracking for #24in48 so far. 10 hours done. I probably won't hit the 24 but I'll do my best.

This book was a pretty quick read, and I loved it. Considering it has to do with Norse gods, and I love Norse mythology so... A+ on my behalf. Did I mention... that it has plenty of other badass gods in it too? But... Freya.....though. 😍 #freya #yalit #books #gods #norse #fantasy

Reading this after catching up on American Gods tv series. Lots of forgotten gods/goddesses out there. Fun, light book so far.

Great, fun read! Really enjoyed the pacing and characters! Thanks #booklybox for the monthly pick!

I LOVE stories about gods and goddesses but there was something about the different pantheons interacting with one another that confused me. I stopped every time a new deity was introduced to look them up which was very frustrating. Loved the concept. #litsyAtoZ #freya #matthewlaurence #gods #goddesses #bailed #yafiction #teenreads #teenfiction #letterF
