I enjoyed the feminist angle here, the emphasis on woman's suffering at the hands of the gods. Like, true. Men suffered too, but mostly it was their own fault?
This retelling felt softer. The buck wildness of Greek mythology was present but not as nitty gritty as in Circe. Importantly, I cried at the end because the theme of motherhood was strong, and I am but an emotional mother.

I hated every single character except Ariadne, the story was a little stretched out and boring and the writing style was kind of difficult to read.
Let's get to know the characters!
- Ariadne ,,I hate men but I will obey them no matter what" the cinnamon roll
- Faidra ,,I love judging but will make the same mistakes I judged" the incest queen
- Theseus ,,Not a thing I said was ever true" who caused that my expectations for men are on the floor
- Dionysos ,,I'm not like other girls- I MEAN GODS- *insert Debby Ryan tucking her hair behind her ear*" the not-so-great-hubby
- Also featuring: Unhappy girls killing animals! Depressed wife married to an abuser! Cute bull-kid who enjoys killing mice a liiiittle too much if you know what I mean.
Overall a solid read that didn't particularly stick out to me. My feelings are similar to Tweet cute.
