A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes

Hm...
This one wasn't my fav... hard format for me not being a mythology expert... I mean I know some! but this sort of felt like it was assumed I knew a lot more than I could pull up, especially in the jumpy-around, circling back on itself, story vs letter format. I just felt so discombobulated most of the time and couldn't really grasp enough empathy to care.
I did like the focus on women in such a patriarchal world. And I enjoyed the Eris and the golden apple Paris story... parts of that had me laughing out loud.
But overall I felt like a ping pong ball in a game played by 13 year olds.
