I had such high hopes for this book! I loved Ariadne and wanted to hear more from Electra's perspective, having read many historical fiction books on the Trojan War. Unlike Ariadne, having the split POV added nothing to the story - if anything, it took away. There was no emotion; everything felt so surface level. I feel like this was written in a rush to a deadline.
