This was a great retelling of one of my favourite myths. Psyche and Eros are both fantastically written characters with their own wants and flaws, and their love for each other was so sweet. I also absolutely loved how the myth was inserted into the canon of Greek mythology, with references to the Trojan cycle and appearances from tons of familiar faces - it was definitely fun as a mythology nerd to take note of all the cameos!
