5.0

I absolutely loved this book! So excited to know that it has a second book coming out soon! A mix of spice, adventure, and warriors! Freya, the main character changes so much and I enjoyed following her journey. Bjorn was mysterious and charming. The battle between who would control Freya, their use of her as a weapon, and a general topic of disregard of women and their roles. I found it inspiring that Freya found her voice!

Her powers are marvelous! I had a hunch that she would be a child of two gods! But so surprised Hel would be the second god. What an interesting combo of a goddess who protects and then a god who can destroy and is involved in the death of people.

Anatomy had me soooo hooked!! it was easy to fall into the world and the rhythm of the plot. I loved Jack quite literally. Him and Hazel just great! It was so genuine and the PLOT TWIST I was NOT expecting that. I mean there were some things I saw coming but others I was like WAIT WHOA WHAT.

I loved this book so much. Cried when Jack almost didn’t make it 💀🧍🏻‍♀️.
I’m a sucker for a nice guy.
