What an adventure. Psyche was so cool, and I love that Eros turned into a bunch of animals.

I like to dabble in Greek mythology books to take a break from Fantasy and Sci-Fi and found that Psyche and Eros was refreshing. Luna McNamara nailed the dichotomy of the dual narrative, one side starting as a matter-of-fact god, the other an ambitious and headstrong princess. I enjoyed how easy it was to read, but being crammed into a fairly short book meant some interesting parts of the story were rushed. But I love how it introduces so many of the other characters from popular Greek mythology books (if you're a fan of The Song of Achilles like me, you'll be excited to see Achilles and Patroclus!). This book gave me great ideas for what I want to read next in the genre.
