this book… okay i had higher hopes ngl, i loved the greek god whole vibe of it and it was very interesting , however at the start it was slow, then a little better then kinda slow again and it was difficult to read but the end… the end redeemed it a little. so overall not a bad book but not the best i’ve read <3
