Goddess of Yesterday by Caroline B. Cooney

A retelling of events leading up to the Trojan War. It's largely driven by fate. I didn't find the main character (Anaxandra) particularly compelling, but I thought she was an effective POV character. The world felt tangible in her eyes, and it made sense to me how, throughout the series of childhood separations, she always tried to grasp and hold on to love.

Liked the Medusa bits + the

Cassandra twist

towards the end
