3.0

Throughout much of the narrative, I found myself disengaged, occasionally only snapping back to attention when the plot took a significant turn. While I attribute some of this distraction to exam anxiety, I must acknowledge the compelling premise of the book: observing a self-absorbed deity like Apollo confront the harsh realities of mortality was really intriguing.
