gemmahelizabeth97 's review for:

A Thousand Ships by Natalie Haynes
2.0

I just could not connect to this book. It goes through the stories of different female characters throughout the trojan war, but I feel like it's still based primarily around the men in their lives. I didn't feel like I actually got to know any of their characters, the actual person behind the title of wife or daughter, and therefore could not connect to the story. I had high hopes given the reviews but to me this didn't read as an inspiring novel on the untold story of women but a book telling me who was related to which male greek legend.
