This book was overall really good. It has beautiful writing and vulnerable characters. The retelling of the original story was very well done in my opinion. However, there were some issues I found. First, it was very slow paced and kinda hard to get into. I struggled to want to read this book everyday which prolonged the reading process. This was my main issue and the others were very small. Overall, the greek tragedies were absolutely heartbreaking which shows how phenomenal the writing is that I felt pain from the hardships. This is what really made the book for me. I would recommend this book 100%, just chug through the beginning lol.
