Because of the goodread reviews, I had lofty expectations for this book. In fact, I even bought the nook version of this book because I had such a hard time finding it.
The book took on three story lines: Eve's creation, Thor's wanderings in ancient times, and present day Eve/Abby. Eve's creation was at times fascinating and brilliant. From Thor's wanderings, I really enjoyed the juxtapositions of the world's mythologies together in one room, literally. I can't say I enjoyed Thor's lovesick puppy dog antics ..... and reading the present day story was laborious for me.
I can't place my finger why. Maybe too similar to an evil paranormal romance.
Overall I like the book, and I have a mild interest to see where the author takes this story.
