Overall I enjoyed it, but nothing groundbreaking. Tells the story of a lesser known Greek deity, but in an approachable and fun way. I occasionally found myself on Wikipedia after a chapter to see what happened in the story matched stories from the Greek pantheon. I thought there would be more gay or sapphic loves, but only indirectly.
