A review by 2122
The Metamorphoses by Ovid

dark informative slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

Took me a while to get through and some parts, particularly about war and war heroes bored me a little but was in general very interesting.
