Atalanta by Jennifer Saint

(Tune in to my full podcast review of Atalanta here.)

This book is so, so special to me. What a beautiful story from beginning to end, and a fascinating new take (for me) on Greek mythology. Atalanta provides a deep look into the morality and sensibility of mindlessly following the mythological gods and goddesses. Really a heartfelt and thoughtful work.

My only downside for this story was that it felt a little draggy at some points. I set it down and came back to it later, as it wasn't quite as captivating for me as Elektra. However, the good far outweighed the bad for me, and I was really impressed with this beautiful retelling.
