atalanta is my favorite greek hero, so my hopes for this book were very high. it was a solid 4 stars for me until the argonauts returned from their quest. after that, the book felt rushed and at times very predictable, while also lacking depth. it felt like the same effort wasn't given to the writing, honestly :/

Atalanta was a great book but there were parts where I was struggling to push through. I enjoyed the last two parts however, as I read through half of Part 3 and Part 4 entirely in 1 day.

I left this feeling just «meh» about it. It was ok, but at several times I had to push myself to continue reading as this was a buddy read and I really wanted to finish it.

My favorite of her books to date. Though I didn’t love the ending, it definitely could’ve been a worse one, given the subject matter.
