So readable it’s insane

I’m all for feminist retellings but Hera is such a bitch it honestly makes this less fun to read

Makes me want to pace around my living room in anger at the world

The type of book you just want to pitch head-first into and not emerge until it’s over

This is good but not hitting like I think it can so pausing for now

This definitely makes no sense, whether it compels me remains to be seen

Love the undercurrent of anger at the British museum just present here

'Who needs sleep when you've got an overactive imagination' new most relatable chapter title in history

Thomil has literally had two chapters so far and both have absolutely killed me

I want less plot and more just straight vibes

Gutting when you come up with a really good plot but the book has other plans

The descriptions of returning to a place you once called home only to find it both the same and completely different are so heartbreaking

The jumping around in time and between characters honestly makes it hard to really care about this story

People who will notice when your evil twin sister takes over your body: your dog, the teenager you adopted six months ago
People who will not notice: your literally psychic best friends of 20 years

A man’s sister telling you not to marry him cause he’s a dick is truly the biggest red flag in history

Extremely slow going cause this is a book that deserves to be savoured

Really suspect men just need to start acting normal towards their first wives. Second wives have enough to deal with without being haunted all the time

Wasn’t loving the writing style at first but I’m starting to see the vision
