I'm always down to read Greek mythology, especially when centering female characters rather than their supplemental roles in most storytellings. Haynes definitely knows her stuff and I can feel her love and passion through the text.
Stories in some parts are a tad long, but she managed to create full circles in each story. I enjoyed it.

An excellent overview of the females of the greek pantheon and a good introduction to the magic of Ancient Greece. However if you know the basics and have already read a bit on the myths this book will not satisfy your thirst, a pity indeed as Natalie Haynes writes with an easy and preciseness of someone who is deeply knowledgeable.
I would recommend it to all the young readers.
