Mythology: Timeless Tales of Gods and Heroes
by Edith Hamilton
I tried to read this like a novel, because that's just the way I read books-big mistake. Hear me out now, DO NOT READ STRAIGHT THROUGH. I found myself wanting to bury this book somewhere and forget where I'd buried it so I would never have to pick it up again. It took me weeks to read-which is very unusual for me. Ihink this is good as a reference book, but for me, it held very little entertainment value. It was informative, but told in a very dry manner. I felt like I was sitting in a lecture hall. I'm excited to read some mythological fiction now that I have some knowledge of mythology, and I can refer to this as a reference book. Although, truth be told, it might have served me just as well to read up about mythology online. I definitely would have saved myself a lot of time!
