Phaedra by Laura Shepperson
2.0
eeehh... idk it was just a thing i read.. not amazing... not the worst..
edit: i enjoyed the world that the novel was set in, but felt as though the plot went nowhere. there was a lot of potential for a very thought provoking novel exploring both the position of women in ancient greek society and the exploitation of mythos by those in power, but the book never took hold of that potential and instead fell flat.
