kelsmreads 's review for:

Orphia and Eurydicius by Elyse John
4.5
adventurous medium-paced

 I always enjoy a Greek mythology retelling but this one was extra fun because it took the myth and bent the genders. I LOVED this!

This was a powerful retelling of Orpheus and Eurydice which basically told all of the gender stereotypes to get out because no one needs those anymore. Women can be awesome badasses and men can be softer and in touch with their emotions. Seriously, I can't tell you how much I loved this!

Thanks @netgalley and @harpercollins360 for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review!
