Good idea for a book, but ultimately superficial and lacked any real depth about queer relationships. Felt stereotypical at times.

It was too slow and felt like little happen in the first 1/3 of the book. 

I find Hera to be a very unlovable character and realized quickly that this story paints her as an underdog. Which, yeah Zeus is controlling and oppressive, but I want a character with fighting for a place in the world, not fighting to take over the world. 

Ultimately, I think this is a good book to show what a young kid would go through when they never had a loving family and suddenly was place with people who desperately want a child, but there's a weird (unnecessary) uncomfortable vibe.

Almost like a monster or an evil is just around the corner, but it never happens. Which feels like it doesn't do anything for the story and just takes away from the main point of the characters.

If you liked, "I'm Glad My Mom Died", you'll likely found comfort in this book as well. The beginning is a bit slow and you have to push past initially getting to know the main character, but once you see the complexity humanity and the depth of what some can go through, you'll want to make it to the end.
