Longer than it looks due to small margins and text but a good read. Made me laugh a couple times and did actually touch on some serious topics.

Kind of raunchy, pretty funny, and cutely emotional at times, this is a fairly standard rom-com immersed in the absurdity of modern day greek gods. A little over the top at times, but also genuinely cute and fun.
The tone is unusual, the closest I could compare it to is "what we do in the shdaows"(although this book is not nearly as high of quality)
Its portrayal of the greek gods is refreshing, but not nice! I have to laugh at reviews that mention they are "unlikeable". Yes, the greek olympian gods ARE incredibly unlikable, hedonistic, and immoral; most of greek mythology would agree. Readers should review trigger warnings before embarking if you're triggered by sensitive topics.
