Pandora's Jar by Natalie Haynes
4.0
informative inspiring relaxing slow-paced

I really enjoyed the retellings of many known and unknown Greek myths, with a detailed focus on the women involved. The first chapter was a little rocky and very reference heavy. However, it was a very accessible read with explained mentions to Greek literature and modern references that were surprisingly relevant. There were a lot of references to art and sculptures, and it was fun looking them up and seeing these women immortalised in museums.
