I love a complicated female lead, who is imperfect in her strength. This book is one where you cannot root for anyone entirely, but find yourself doing so anyway, for as bad as some may be there are always those who are worse. It also made Greek mythology more accessible to someone who snoozed through the odyssey in high school.
