I received this book from booksirens for an honest review
I love books set in Ancient Greek and this book is for people who love those books too. Otrera is a true play thing of the gods which is true for so many hero's in Ancient Greece but that makes it fun. It feels like inmost off the book Otrera is looking for her purpose and that search is really well put out in the book. I just hoped I guess there was a bit more action in the book. it's more Otrera companions say let's do this and. then Otrera is ok and all hell breaks lose. That is not my most favorite thing to happen. Like once is fine but multiple times it always start to annoy me after a time.
But is this book bad NO, will I recommend this book YES, do I think it's a good YA book YES. I would also recommend this to people who start. reading greek myth. because you get an easy start into the myths and it's definitely an easier to read then more complicated myths like the Iliad and odyssey.
Do I want to read the second book probably because I want to know what happens next.
Side note I just got lost a lot of the time with all the side characters and a glossary would have been useful for me.
