I did enjoy parts and pieces to this book. The writing was stunning and there were parts of the book where I couldn’t put it down. The message came through clearly, that women are the playthings (and ultimate victims) of heroes and gods. 

The ending wasn’t as satisfying as I had hoped. This made me realize that most of Greek myth is just bad men being awful.
