Lore Olympus: Volume One by Rachel Smythe

3.0

It was enjoyable. Not mythologically accurate in any sense (other than the names of the characters and their relations to one another) but it felt like reading a fanfiction. Which, I guess, is pretty accurate to what it actually is.

I don’t have too much to say about this book, but it was entertaining. I did feel like Persephone is a bit too infantalized for me here, even though she is portrayed as an adult. I know they’re setting it up as like she has a lot to learn, but maybe it’s her character design.

Either way, I might read the rest of the series in my spare time.
