Rereading this bc I wanna watch the show and I get why I gave it 3 stars. The Greek myths are simplified and very Americanised.. it feels like what people mean when they say middlegrade is below their ya or adult reading level when good middlegrade doesn't read to me that way at all. But I do have to say that it finally gets better around now-ish at least regarding the friends' dynamics and the action. Mb will 3.5*.
