A review by krpinbooks
Phaedra by Laura Shepperson

2.0

I listened to the audio book narrated by Jade Wheeler, Mary Helen Gallucci, Julia Atwood, Mark Owen, Erin DeWard, Leon Nixon, and Nicky Endres and they did an excellent job.

The story was just ok, though. I believe Ms. Shepperson was attempting to use the myth to explore the subject of rape and the patriarchy but I just didn't find it very compelling. Phaedra and the rest of the characters fell pretty flat and I didn't find myself ever caring what happened to any of them. I'm struggling to remember much about the thing and I usually love this genre. It was just meh and not really worth going through the trauma of hearing about multiple rapes for 10 hours.
