The Gospel of Loki by Joanne M. Harris

Let there be…
Maybe more a 4,5⭐️ but still thinking.
First and foremost, as a Marvel-Loki fan, this was a little tougher to get into because he’s set in my head in a certain way and that idea needs to be completely let go. There needs to be nothing. Only then can you really take this retelling in in its fullest.
Once you’re set like that, it’s easy to pick up on what Loki’s like and man. No Loki can catch a break, can they?
I loved the way he was, the way he reacted to certain things, and especially the way he narrated it all. It’s a wonderfully written book and even if it hurts that he hurts, gets hurt, over and over and over, you keep reading. It keeps pulling you in.
I won’t be reading book 2, I know that. But this retelling definitely hit well.
