Lore Olympus: Volume One by Rachel Smythe

2.0

So.
My thoughts on this were kinda mixed. 
At first, I was bored. Yes, bored. The art style and coloring are absolutely amazing, but the story is just so normal. It feels like the mythology was kinda wasted on it? As in, those greek-roman mythologies are absolute bananas and filled with drama, but this is just a very average and normal romance story that underutilizes the mythological elements.
Also, the plot and dialogues felt very juvenile while the story was being overly sexualized. I don't mind either of those things when they're separate, but it feels kinda icky when they're jogether.
Besides, so far, it's very heteronormative. It feels like another waste.
And, that scene at the end felt unecessary.
BUT. HOWEVER. ON THE OTHER SIDE.
The art style is GORGEOUS. And the characters are starting to grow on me. So I'll probably keep reading.
