A review by wrens_reads
Queer Villains of Myth and Legend by Dan Jones

funny informative fast-paced

2.5

2.5⭐️. I listened to this on audiobook and found the narration (by the author) to fit the breezy and humorous tone of the book. Some chapters were really interesting such as those focusing on Greek mythology and Romantic literature, but some seemed to be poorly researched and not well thought-out. The book definitely takes a shotgun-style approach to queer villains by naming as many as possible which works in showcasing just how many there have been throughout history, but unfortunately it means that everything is very surface level and glossed over. I loved the topic of this book I just wish it had gone more in-depth and been better researched.
