I can't wait for the entire book to be released. It's agoing to end up being one of my favorite books ever, I can already tell.

When I first began reading this book, I felt as if I was left out of a joke or a story everyone else knew. However, as I got further and further into it I wanted more than just a sample- I wanted to read the whole book and figure out what happened to her family and if she gets revenge. One of the things that drew me in was the greek mythology, so I imagine this will attract many more readers.

exited for the release- will read depending on the cost!

Alexandra strikes again! I am so excited to read the full story. I’m so intrigued by her story-telling and how she is able to draw the audience in - even with chapter samplers. This is definitely one of my most anticipated reads of 2021.

I am incredibly intrigued by the modernization of the myths and am excited to read the rest of the story when the book is published. I love the idea of the bloodlines of the heroes continuing their work. Lore seems like an amazing character and I am delighted to see the rest of her story.

ive always loved Bracken’s work that ive read, so i was really looking forward to her reimagining of greek mythology, and these first few chapters far exceeded my expectations. im so much more excited for this now. this looks like the start to a new favorite book of mine.

I am SO excited for this book and this sampler just made me even MORE excited. I cannot wait for it to come out so I can keep reading.

This is Alexandra Bracken at her best. This chapter made me want to read the entire book and you can't ask for more than that.

This was a bit much to digest, based on the sampler I feel like I was right in the middle of the action with very little context. As I read on, I started to get a little bit more aware of what was happening.

Right now I’m really liking the mythology aspect of it and I’m looking forward to read the rest of the book!

This chapter sampler was super intriguing! Not at all what I expected from this novel based on the book description. The story is paced in such a way that made me want to keep reading. Definitely keeping this one in mind!

This chapter sampler has me really excited. First, that cover is breathtaking. Second, what's not to like about mythology. The characters seem great, the story started off with a bang. I can't wait to read more!

I have to say the cover for Lore is absolutely stunning . I'm really thankful to have been approved for the chapter sampler and I'm really hoping to get approved for the full arc after reading the six chapters. The world and character building within these chapters are beautifully written I love the flow of the words and details of everything going on. Reading these chapters have me really excited to see where and what Lore, Athena, and Miles will be doing next and how their characters are going to develop within the book and what new characters will be introduced later in the book.

Just like any Alexandra Bracken book, this chapter sampler gives us just enough to keep wanting more. Of course when I requested this I expected the whole book but alas, I still enjoyed it. I can't wait to learn more about the characters, the world and the the crazy (but amazing) journey they will be on.

I was given access to a chapter sampler of this book on NetGalley.

The premise of this book really intrigued me as I am a big fan of Greek Mythology. Thus far I have only read the first few chapters and I must say I am absolutely hooked. Not only is the story incredibly fresh and unlike anything I have read in the past few years, but it also adds a new dimension to the Gods that have been written about for centuries. I am very excited to read and review the entirety of this book upon its release or if a full review version becomes available in the future.

Samples are great, they give a good feel for the story but then they also suck, because right when the world and the plot are all set up.... BOOM! It is over and now you're stuck waiting for the full ARC to be available so you can try to get that and actually find out what happens after what can only be the world's worst cliffhanger.

So yeah, Lore was great if you can't tell. The idea of a Greek mythical war between the gods and wannabes was super interesting. I had a little difficulty understanding the nature of what was happening but I believe that is something that would have been cleared if I had been able to continued reading. From the sampler I can tell that I will love Lore and everything about her, from her survival status. her need to be free while she lusts for revenge. I know I probably won't like any of the original Greek gods, but honestly who could blame me? I do not know about Miles and Castor but I want to know more and I wish I could have kept reading, but alas. I must wait.

I feel like it has been a while since Alexandra Bracken has published a book, but this one is bound to be AWESOME.

Thank you for the Sample!

I am looking forward to this story. I like the authors other books so should be a great book.

I was disappointed to learn this was a sampler, but I still enjoyed this first look at Lore. It started off a bit slow for me, but seems promising. I think the premise is cool, and the mix between a modern setting and older mythology creates something that feels fresh and exciting. . I can’t wait to see where this goes!

Incredibly excited to read the full version of this - Alexandra Bracken crafts a beautiful world with gorgeous prose and the mythical element certainly adds to the magic of the writing and the characters.

Thank you to NetGalley for gifting me a free digital ARC (e-book) sample of this title. I really liked it! I love books about mythology and I was so excited to dive into this story, even though it was just a sample. It definitely took me longer than I expected to read this but once I did I really enjoyed it. The world building was very strong and I liked the amount of detail the author put in. It was gripping and quickly pulled me in. I would read the full book of this, definitely!

Bracken opens strong with an intriguing overview of this books world building presenting greek mythology in a brand new way. Zeus, always known for his complex punishments, have sentenced the greek pantheon to become mortal each year, where the lineages of greek heroes have the opportunity to kill them and become gods themselves. An ancestor and one of the last remaining original gods team up for a fascinating revenge story! As this was a chapter sampler, I have tentatively given the book 4 stars, but I will definitely
be reading Lore when it comes out!

A great little sampler, though I wish it were much longer than that unfortunately I thought it was the galley and now I must painstakingly wait.
