9 from the Nine Worlds by Rick Riordan

This is another easy 5-star read for me! Rick Riordan really knows his characters - he knows every nook and cranny of the world he has built. He is a master at adding on to the character's relationships, motivations, and backstories even with a fun side novel. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to explore firsthand more of the secondary Magnus Chase series characters.  The stories were fun and silly - just as you would expect from Riordan. Thor's interwoven involvement across all the short stories was also a hilarious addition. Definitely recommend it if you're looking for something lighthearted and fun!
