Such an amazing book to delve into a few the women of Greek myths. A great springboard to look into other similar texts, too.
Haynes explores various themes and arguments for each woman, linking a few of them together (it's Greek myth, everyone's related).
Not a full 5 stars for me as sometimes I felt I as the reader needed to know the myths better to understand some of the points Haynes made.
