katymaryreads 's review for:

Olympus, Texas by Stacey Swann
4.0
challenging emotional reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

A compelling family drama, with echoes of Greek myths that were completely lost on mee. None of the characters were entirely likeable, and most made several poor choices, but I found them sympathetic nevertheless.
