Loki

Overall I enjoyed the book, but the writing seemed more juvenile than I'm used to reading to the point where this felt more like a junior book (maybe 6-8 grade) rather than YA, as if the one same-sex peck was what got it slapped with a YA rating. I really enjoyed Lee's [b:The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue 29283884 The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue (Montague Siblings, #1) Mackenzi Lee https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1492601464l/29283884.SY75.jpg 49527118] but felt that those characters were a lot more thought out with better dialogue and a more realistic relationship. Even though the author had an immeasurable amount of resources for Loki's character, this still read like an ammateur fan fiction (and I've read better on A03 that wasn't backed by an official brand). However, I am undoubtedly biased with my own ideas of Loki's characterisation, which is unavoidable in this case.I'm honestly surprised Marvel published this as an official release. While it's canon in both the original Norse sagas and many comics with Loki appearances that he can change gender and has an undefined sexualiy, this book seemed to make it a lot more concrete that he's fluid in both which makes the narrative feel that it's for a more specific audience than stereotypical superhero comic book readers, especially fans from the MCU - media that tends to shy away from making Loki's character quite so multi-dimensional.
