I was expecting a story about a monsterous myth but instead I got a story about a girl who learned to love herself. I love the art, it was beautiful and I wish I could read it for the first time again

Fabulous feminist retelling of Medusa! A feminist retelling of an old story that challenges traditional tropes and highlights the unjust punishment of a young girl for being herself. The writing is beautiful and it really made me empathize with Medusa. I was laughing, crying, and cheering for her by the end. I absolutely loved it!
