pickMostly OK but I had to skim sections about who fought who and why of Snorri‘s kin. Most interesting is that we get all of our Norse myths from a man who lived in 1200s Iceland which influenced Tolkien and others.

Random book from our personal library.
I received this from LibraryThing Early Reviewers. Still need to read it.
Started a book about early Iceland and a famous poet who wrote about Norse myths and the sagas.
Recent acquisition for our personal library.

so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️ In a weird-for-me twist, the romance was actually my least favorite part of this. I thought Jensen did a great job creating the setting, bringing in & fleshing out the Norse gods & culture, and giving readers an easy way to understand all the people & connections.
The romance felt very fast, which doesn‘t usually bother me, and forced, so I didn‘t connect with it as much.
I‘m glad I finally read this & I‘ll definitely read book two!
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Updating my #readingbracket2025 with this gem! I loved this book so much! Give me more Fierrochase/Beatrice please!
Throwing this out a bit late, but here's my stats from last month. I'm pretty satisfied with this, and I hope this month will be even better.
pickTook a while….its hard to get back into the swing of reading consistently!….but we got there!
