Absolutely incredible. So beautifully written, and the way that Lynn writes the complex relationship between mother and daughter is like nothing I have ever read. She writes a version of the gods that makes them both relatable but so alien in the way that they experience the events of the book and also express their own emotions. 
Lynn’s descriptions of the world around the characters was so lush and atmospheric, perfect for this story. 
Demeter and Persephone had such individual voices and the way their versions of events contrasted made this a book I couldn’t put down.
