Some passages in this book are fun to read. The rest is just… God, he really hates women, huh! The translator did a great job, and I really enjoyed the notes he’s added to it. 2/5, would never read this book again, or anything by Ovid really…

It was really cool to see so many Greek and Roman myths in one place. Especially since Ovid is like the guy for these myths. I really loved learning and reading all of the myths, but the story is really slow. There are 15 books within the work, so there is an opportunity to break the story up.
