In the forward of ‘Women of Myth’ Liv Albert begins with “There’s nothing I love more than mythology…except maybe women in mythology.” and it rings so true for me. I loved every bit of this book, some myths I knew but most I was reading about for the first time and it was fantastic. Separated into three sections (Goddesses, Heroines, and Monsters) and pulling from varied cultures, there’s something for everyone. If you enjoy mythology, read this book! If you don’t really enjoy mythology, read this book and you will! Besides being well written and interesting, it’s also very pretty and I can’t wait to have my own physical copy for my shelf.

Thank you to NetGalley and Adams Media for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.

I would have loved this book as a kid, it was a beautifully done collection of myths about women. I enjoyed getting to learn about a bunch of myths I had never heard of. I enjoyed getting to go through the sections and it had what I was looking for. I would read another book by these authors.
