Atalanta is the newest mythological retelling from Jennifer Saint and it’s not bad. Atalanta is one that I hadn’t known the backstory on before this and learning the backstory along with the retelling was incredibly interesting. 

I do think I would have enjoyed this particular retelling better as an ebook or physical book over the audiobook. Not to say the audio is bad, it isn’t, but something about it didn’t allow for me to easily keep up with the story as I realized I kept drifting off to other thoughts and I had to rewind.
