Mortal Coil: Dog Days is an absolute riot of a read, blending divine mishaps, citywide chaos, and sharp satire into one hilarious fantasy adventure. Moxy Lynn’s accidental entanglement with two very opinionated godly aspects leads to a story packed with absurd encounters—half-tree con artists, indulgent deities, and crime syndicates that mean business (literally). What I loved most was the razor-sharp humor mixed with moments of unexpected depth, making it more than just a laugh-out-loud journey. If you like your fantasy with wit, weirdness, and a bit of divine red tape, this is a great read.

Listen, if you’ve ever wondered what would happen if a goddess, a scam artist, and a girl with way too many problems walked into a city full of corrupt officials and unionized criminals, Mortal Coil: Dog Days has your answer—and it is GLORIOUS. Moxy Lynn is an absolute disaster (in the best way), the gods are overworked, and somehow, there's still time for smoking Dreamleaf and dodging assassins with benefits. This book is like Discworld and Greek mythology had a chaotic lovechild, and I loved every second of it. 10/10 would recommend for anyone who enjoys sarcastic gods, snarky heroines, and mayhem with a side of wisdom. ⚡📜😂

I'm afraid I had to DNF this book at around 20%.
I've had trouble getting into the writing style of this book. It lacks heavily in details related to the world, the characters and all the different god names.
A glossary and map would've heen handy for some of these things. As for characters and the world, a lot more detail about their looks, clothing, etc. would've been appreciated. For me, it makes it really hard to flow with the story without these details.
I initially liked the kind-of comedic writing style and the premise of the story, but the constant repetition and the detail of things that really didn't need it was off-putting. The raven's wings didn't need to be talked about again the second time and the robes vs dressed debacle was repeated a bit too many times in such a short amount of pages.
