Well, it’s Greek mythology, what did you expected? The sex content it’s on a low key, it’s not that graphic but it’s still there

Note to readers: do NOT read any of the character excerpts at the back of the book until you’ve finished the story. I accidentally spoiled major plot points myself this way.

The book was so well written and i devoured it quickly. The voice and writing style takes after the way old myths are written so it’s a bit more formal. The love story was beautiful and i still cried even knowing what the end held. Beautiful story
