Thanks to W. W. Norton & Company for supplying an advance reading copy of this title in exchange for a fair and honest review.
First, let me say that all the Marvel inspired Loki lovers will have a complete turn of affections after completing Gaiman’s retelling.
Secondly, I have read Norse mythology in the past and found little that was memorable, too many gods, all nebulous and unsympathetic. I realize now that Norse mythology is completely griping. It was just never told by the right storyteller.
I can easily envision Mr. Gaiman bundled near a crackling fire on a frigid night surrounded by a group wrapped in his words and trying to make sense of the harsh world around them. Perhaps it’s thousands of years ago, or in his retelling perhaps it is now. Perhaps that final chapter of the world’s destruction is in our near future. Everything feels very real and very now.
A work worthy of any bookshelf!
The Teens’ Top Ten is a “teen choice” list, where teens nominate and choose their favorite books of the previous year! Nominators are members of teen book groups in sixteen school and public libraries around the country. Nominations were posted on the Thursday of National Library Week, and teens across the country voted on their favorite titles each year.
Readers ages twelve to eighteen voted online between August 15 and Teen Read Week™ (October 9-15, 2016) on the Teens’ Top Ten site. The winners were announced the week after Teen Read Week.

It ‘s an afternoon of fun and games for all ages! Bring your own games or try out the library’s giant Yahtzee, Reverse Charades, Twister, Candyland, or the ever popular, Apples to Apples.

All socks need to be donated by September 30 when they will be given to the Family Crisis Center. Thank you for your generosity.
