Ariadne

katie_smith-walker shared a tip "Greek mythology is so fascinating. Though this story was slow going and took some powering through to get into it I rather enjoyed it in the end."

lauren_fahrner shared a tip "This book was so hard to put down! Hearing from both sisters about their lives with the men they married kept the plot interesting. The myths have truly come to life in this."

angelica_gonzalez_7574 shared a tip "This book was a beautiful story told by two sisters done wrong by men and paying their price like Selema and Medusa. Being blinded by men’s “heroics” or “glories”. However the writing style was not for me and made it very difficult to read. A lot of unnecessary descriptions and repetitions."

abigail_rose_9043 shared a tip "Really good but will definitely make you sad. A really good greek mythology from the womens perspective (which is a genre I'm really starting to enjoy). I've read Circe from Madeline Miller and then decided to get this one since Ariande is in that book as well."

jaime_sherman shared a tip "This book is everything!!! From her description of emotions to her feminist view on Greek myths to female empowerment and teaches toxic masculinity to small boys. All wrapped up in a story you know or if you don't you want to know what happens next. Wonderful!"

clara_smith_1151 shared a tip "Absolutely beautiful twist and turns on the Greek tales we all learned but with females in the forefront. Give more depth to what they would've experienced."

connie_schroth shared a tip "I love Mythology and have since high school. This is another excellent Mythological story. I loved it and am adding it to my personal library."

tatum_updegraff shared a tip "This was beautifully written and had me sucked in from early on. Without spoiling anything the ending packed a punch and I love when books leave you basically breathless trying to process everything. 5/5 for me"

pnina_haas shared a tip "The little blurb sounds like it would be a good read but an excerpt like paragraph would let me know authors style if they are describing enough detail"

madison_parker_5907 shared a tip "A wonderful and tragic story. You will be enraptured until the end, and then you will grieve the fate of every woman within Greek Mythology. #myths #greekmythology #tragedy #monsters #romance"

camila_miranda_facc shared a tip "I liked this book mainly because it is mythology from the perspective of a woman, Ariadne. The way her feelings and reasoning are developed is really gripping. Once you start reading it just gets better and better."

k8lyn_l shared a tip "It was sort of slow in the beginning, but was good overall. Has lots of “big” words and long sentences. But beautifully written! 3.5/5 stars. also, read Circe by Madeline Miller as this book has a slight nod to it!!"
