Wow.

This book was stunning. I have never, ever, in any Greek or Roman myth, empathized with the Hera/Juno character. And yet, here I am: feeing that June is a character and woman who will stay in my heart and head for a very long time.

This was a story about a messy family but it didn’t feel messy. I loved every minute.
