Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC!

Phaedra by Laura Shepperson was a very good book. It affected me deeply and was well-written. 

This book offered a fresh perspective to Phaedra’s story I hadn’t read before. Perhaps I had a different experience because the audiobook had separate people voicing separate perspectives, but I felt each different point of view added to the story. This book also kept my attention and I finished it quickly. After I finished the book, it left me staring at the wall, just reflecting on what I had just read. 

If you are looking for a book with a more somber tone than Ariadne by Jennifer Saint, then this is the book for you.
