This was really enjoyable. I love a good Greek mythology retelling, and this definitely is a hit! 

The prose was more lyrical than I usually go for, but it was done very well! It wasn’t overdone, and it was easy to follow along. 

My only complaint with this, which I know is done intentionally, was using ‘sex’ to describe the genitals of the characters rather than using other words. It’s a personal preference that I don’t want genitals in books to be referred to as ‘sex’, but in this case, I see why it was used (the prose style). 

Overall, this was a great Greek mythology retelling that I recommend!!

DID NOT FINISH: 15%

I started this book yesterday, read 2 chapters, and have absolutely no desire to pick it back up, even just for one more chapter. These chapters are also long (13 chapters in a 256 page book), and I just don’t want to read it further. My first Chuck Tingle book is a miss 

My forever favourite polyamory triad <3

What can I say, I love Katee Robert and Disney…

I received an ALC from Libro.fm

This was SO worth the wait oh my god. People have been talking about this nonstop on the sides of bookstagram I’m on, and FOR GOOD REASON!!!!

I loved this. This is what I want for rom-coms. It’s funny, sexy, but also tackles topics like Indigenous identity in the workforce, white supremacy, financial struggles, and racism in the corporate world. 

This was done so well, and I’m so glad I got to read it. Highly recommend!
