Everyone wanting Heracles to be the leader but Heracles essentially going "nah dude. Let Jason do that" is hilarious to me

I actually really adore this book. Everytime there is a reminder that Pandora is described as "most beautiful woman" and also overweight I get so happy and I really enjoy the way disabilities are handled + I appreciate the way there is a nonbinary character in it without it having any discussion or really mention of it. They just use they/them pronouns and that's very nice.

I actually also enjoy the romance

Okay so, this intruiged me more an more and now its a genuine drug trip and I actually hope in the last 90 pages it comes back to itself a little bit to explain what's going on

"This place we live in is a pencil sketch. A vague impression."

So they are all assholes (escpecially Clive) but I really enjoy the writing style and the little things that are just - off. very intruiging tbh

Flick deserves better istg

Now tell me why i actually like Jason? That's so weird. ALSO WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE FLEECE IS NOT MAGICAL. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THE FLEECE. WHY WOULD THEY WANT THE FLEECE AND ALMOST DIE FOR IT IF ITS NOT MAGICAL

Okay listen. They turned Hekate into a mortal woman who died and only then turned into a God. Also Medea just ,,,, got witchcraft from her and didn't do it herself. Aeetes is commically evil AND JASONS FIRST CHAPTER MADE ME LIKE HIM MORE THAN MEDEA. this is all wrong.

I'll see how long I will read this or if it gets better but they are butchering my evil woman. Maybe I will have to read "vile lady villains".

I - already have a bone to pick with this book, so much that I closed it in disbelief. We are at the Prologue. Twenty years after the Argonaut story WDYM MEDEA IS STILL MARRIED TO JASON AND SHE HAS CHILDREN THAT ARE ALIVE?? I- HUH- so this will be a doozy. I just wanted lesbian medea and atalanta but with medea staying a complicated, villanous woman. God- Lets see what this turns into

I do like the way that Wendell cares for Emily. It is very sweet because he actually sees her. Also I kind of hope that Emily finds a way to live inbetween the worlds or both worlds

I do love long train rides

So far I am massively enjoying the depiction of the fae, they are delightful. Also if Bambley is a fae, I do hope he also is mischivious and has fae rules/morals. I am enjoying myself. I wish it would be more academic actually but I do really enjoy it!

Listen, I don't always understand what's going on but I am utterly transfixed and I love the way this is written

Did I expect the book being a lil horny? No. But I have read some reviews and was prepared and honestly it's really not as bad as people were saying and also it somehow really fits the vibe and I do enjoy the vibe a lot. I am actually very interested in how this is going
