I got other books that I was more interested in. I might come back to this book but for now I’ll put it down.

I honestly didn’t know anything about this book before starting. I ended up really enjoying the book, however constantly looking up the words on their attached dictionary kind of ruined my reading. I had to take myself away from the story to look up words which did impact my overall rating of the book. That being said, I really enjoyed the story. I can’t wait for the actual story to be published.

This book takes place in the same location although set during 2 time periods from the point of view of 3 characters. This book made me cheer for each character in a different way and kept me wanting to know what was going to happen next. I closed the book with a big smile on my face.

I loved this book! It’s a modern day Greek mythology inspired book. I love the characters, the plot, and the ending left me wanting more.
