This was one of my most anticipated books of the year so I was thrillllled to get a chance to read early! Greek myth retellings is one of my favorite subgenres and I especially love to read stories about characters I haven’t read much about. I was READY to witness Jason’s downfall bc I HATE THAT MAN.

I really enjoyed this! Medea was a fascinating character and it was so interesting to read her inner monologue during all of her infamous misdeeds. Seeing Circe and Atalanta make significant appearances was wonderful! I loved seeing everything come together (or fall apart?) in the end, I think the final few chapters were my favorite. The author did NOT shy away from Jason’s insidiousness and it was vindicating to see him painted in such a harsh light. He’s truly SCUM.

Overall, a really good addition to my retellings shelf; a relief after being let down by quite a few of them in recent years. Would definitely look out for more from this author in the future!

This was a phenomenal read. Captivating right from the start. They will never make me hate you, Medea
