Atalanta was a great book but there were parts where I was struggling to push through. I enjoyed the last two parts however, as I read through half of Part 3 and Part 4 entirely in 1 day.

The feeling this book gave me while reading, Is exactly what I wanted and needed after watching the Barbie movie. I think that says a lot. 🏃🏽‍♀️🏹🥰😭

This quote ends the book and it’s absolutely perfect 

The oracle warned that I would lose myself, but the opposite is true. I am more myself than I have ever been. I am wild, I am free.I am Atalanta.
