The Witch's Heart

cheyenne_corty shared a tip "What a wonderful love letter to Norse mythology this is! I loved every page of this. Very emotional and romantic while also maintaining an air of melancholy and longing. I felt nostalgia while reading this, and I have no idea why. Angrboda is an awesome character and feels very human for a giant/witch. Highly recommend for Madeline Miller fans, Norse mythology fans, Loki fans, or those who enjoy mythological fiction overall."

ava_shafran shared a tip "Gornichec’s writing was so elegant and made me feel as if I was really there in the story. Overall a 10/10 book that had me in a whirlwind of emotions."

Katmisc shared a tip "This book was heart wrenching. It’s got Mythology retelling, complicated relationships, tragedies, the power of Motherly love, Queer relationships, Loki. This book tore my heart apart and then put it back together only for it to break it again. Such a good book."

georgia_quesnell shared a tip "The book started out very slow for me. I felt that it was really lacking character development. As the book continued I started to become more interested in the plot. Overall 3/5"

olivia_johnson_3804 shared a tip "The way the author made ragnarock into a novel was well done. It ledt me with the thought " I knew the Norse gods were dicks but I didn't know they were this big of ones.""

c_ruedin shared a tip ""Long ago, when the gods were young and Asgard was new, there came a witch from the edge of the worlds." Angrboda is mentioned only briefly in what little sources we have for original Norse mythology, referenced as the mother of Loki's children. Genevieve Gornichec has taken these remnants and woven a rich and compelling story of fate, love, betrayal and grief. A gorgeous retelling in the modern fashion."
