I‘m only like halfway through this small book but I find the descriptive way it was written plus the millions of names quite tedious. If it would be any longer this might be a DNF, which is sad, because the story is interesting...
On the plus side: our apples are ripe😍
What better way to start in the day - tea, new book and fluffy cat in the sun on the balcony. Could life always be this great please?😍
pickI really loved this story. The adventure itself was enchanting and the story well told. Would have been 5 star but there was a lot of 'person son of person who's son that-guy once did a thing' moments which were frustrating, but would probably have been important back in the day. Would still gladly read again ❤🧡💛
#13inThree update: listened to the first hour and a bit of A Long Way to a Small Angry Planet at the gym (LOVING IT!!! ❤)! Decided that this is as good a time as any to work my way through my Penguin Little Black Classics, so I've now finished the first two (pictured) and started the 3rd (tagged) 😊 it's been a good day 😁❤💙💜

pickEnjoyable tale of two warriors fighting over a beautiful maiden using both swords and the ancient Icelandic version of rap battles, poetry. I've never read any Icelandic myths before, but the basic plot was still familiar without feeling stale.
pickI take back earlier criticisms, once you get past the lists of names this was very enjoyable and I will be reading more Icelandic sagas. Another very interesting little book from penguin
Hoping to finish this tonight though I must admit am struggling slightly with the style
Next up in the penguin little black classics, a bit of Viking epics!
The saga of Gunnlaug Serpent-Tongue | 
so-so
