So something I loved about this book was it's origin story! It started off as a little writing exercise after a read from Ovid's Metamorphoses.
I found this compendium of sorts to be so creative! I loved how Nina McLaughlin put a spin to everything, so something as simple as switching POV's to doing a modern AU. It was always interesting to see how she would put a spin on a myth.
However... That was all I really liked :((
Some stories I really liked, like Callisto, Daphne, Arachne. Some I did not like at aaaaall. It's a no from me.
