I randomly saw this sitting on my bookshelf and immediately was sent back to age 8 when I first read this series. As the daughter of a classics professor of course I loved the cute and whimsical Goddess Girls series. This installment in particular was my favorite because I absolutely loved Medusa and Dionysus , but in this rereading it I was disappointed by the lack of interactions. Plus it was way worse than I remembered but there’s nothing to blame there other than me, now 18 years old, aging out of the target audience. 

I’m so tempted to read the other Medusa centric book in this series for nostalgias sake.
