A Odyssey inspired story with sapphics? That sounds amazing!

You know what we didn’t get? That.

Every character was one dimensional and mostly annoying or being a huge piss baby the entire time except for maybe the Prince which in a story advertising a focal point on sapphics is a disappointment.

I got this book through Illumicrate, and I attempted to physically read it. When I couldn’t, I tried borrowing the audiobook from Libby. I had to renew it FOUR TIMES to actually get through this bland, boring, uninspired book.

You know what’s even worse? The author admits to having not even read the Odyssey. I’m sorry, how are you going to write a book inspired by one of the OLDEST, most widely available texts in the world and NOT EVEN READ THE SOURCE MATERIAL??? What happened to research? Why are we doing this? Who was this made for? Because the bi rep was awful. The romances were as stale as cardboard. The Greek mythology was NOT Greek mythology-ing.

This was so painful because I WANTED to love this. I gave it so many tries and in the end… it doesn’t even matter. 😔
