I enjoyed every second of this book. I was familiar with the titular character’s part in the story of the Minotaur, but unfamiliar with what happened to her afterward. I was expecting the Minotaur aspect of her life to take up more of the book, but was not disappointed by how much was devoted to her life afterward.
I was also pleasantly surprised by the inclusion of Phaedra’s POV. She was such a fiery character, and I enjoyed how different she was from her sister.
I typically prefer my books to be plot heavy, and this was definitely a character-driver story, so that’s probably why it wasn’t a five star read for me. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the characters and the writing, so it’s still a book I loved and would recommend. 4 stars.
