A Word's Worth originally started as more a holding-place for memorable quotes (books, movies, conversations), with random musings about books or movies. Evolving into a truer book blog, it now features reviews and reading-related posts. Also featured are writings that the blogger finds relevant, creative, interesting, or simply decides to post.

Odd and the Frost Giants
Odd and the Frost Giants
Neil Gaiman (HarperCollins 2009)
Ohmigoodness. I loved this book. And not just because I read it on a stickily hot 93* day either. It has all the elements of Norse myth that I love, and reads like a legend - but it's so obviously 'modern' in creature (language, etc.). Really, there's nothing to say but "I loved it" and "I hope Gaiman writes more of these tales". You're going to have to read it for yourself, because I don't want to give anything away. It's quick and easy, and very enjoyable.
Book provided by my local library
