This was such a beautiful book.
First thing i loved about this book is all the fluff and romance, it had me blushing and smiling to myself like an idiot, both couples were so cute and perfect for each other.
Second is the greek mythology part, i really loved it’s such a fun way to tell a story, makes it extra spicy, and i love greek mythology in general so win win!
Thing number three is the way the author talks about topics like race and gender, and how it’s discussed in a respectful informed way that just adds depth to the story.
Definitely one of my favorite books.
