Free copy from Netgalley for review ~ A quick read but I still struggled with wanting to pick it up and finish it. On paper this sounds like something I would enjoy but I found it annoying in the end. Part of my problem was the writing style and all the myriad of *lengthy* explanation passages that interrupted the story. I just couldn’t care about all the gods and goddesses and oodles of special powers. I also couldn’t figure out how people could just ignore the fact that the kid’s parents had been vanished for twelve whole days and do nothing. Even Orabella seems to forget after about the middle of the book,

The main character is also A Chosen One and super unique in every way. I wish there had been more time traveling, and adventuring to save her parents, because that’s what I was promised—but she only goes back in time once.. >.<. I did like her family though.

Overall, average to underwhelming for me. Probably a young reader who loves myths will enjoy it much more.
