Go the Distance
by Jen Calonita
Thank you to Disney Publishing Worldwide for this ebook in exchange for an honest review.
First off, I LOVE the Disney Twisted Tale collection. Before Go the Distance, I have read 3 titles, one by Jen Calonita (Conceal, Don't Feel). I love her writing style.
Go the Distance, I felt, was researched very well when it comes to Greek Myths and the Ancient Greek world. I enjoyed how Calonita brought the gods personalities from the movies into her story. The portrayal of the gods was done very well in reference to the movie. However, if you did not like how Disney portrayed the gods in the movie Hercules, I would not recommend reading this book because the gods are the same. Calonita also gave personalities to the gods we did not see much of on-screen, which I loved.
When it comes to Megara herself, I loved how we get into her backstory, even if it is not the one Disney originally wanted to portray. Seeing how Meg became herself in the movie with the alternating timelines was great and very easy to follow along with.
Overall, this is one of my favourite books now and I cannot wait until I can get my hands on a finished copy in April!
