I wasn't expecting this to be a deep non-fiction dive into the history of Greek females across genres, but I'm weirdly glad that it was. In any other book, discussing Buffy and Beyonce might seem out of place but it worked! While slow at times, I enjoyed learning more about some of the underrepresented females like Jocasta and Penthesilea as well as the QUEEEEEN Medea. The writing style was easy to follow, feeling similar to an AP essay, and it was broken down into sections by each female character. I'm not sure why it took me so long to finish this book, but it's worth the read for any mythology fan.
