Okay, I feel like enough time has passed for me to make a more coherent review. This book was absolutely stunning! I’m probably blinded by my own bias because I’m a slut for all things Greek mythology and the story of Medusa has ALWAYS intrigued me so take what I say with a grain of salt lol
But I can honestly say this book was amazing. I was engrossed from the very first chapter and it just got more enthralling as I went along. It’s a story about things that happened centuries ago, but still told in a way that carries a very relevant message to what women are still going through today. I just absolutely love when authors are able to tell a story that leaves you completely enchanted, but also reflective. A well deserved five star rating!
