im… indifferent towards this.
i enjoyed the first book because of its faithfullness to the story of penelope, a story i am familiar with. but this one? its something new that could have happened while odysseus was away on his odyssey. the plot isnt rooted in any ancient story, but rather the authors own imagination.
i do think the murder mystery and penelope playing detective was interesting enough to read about, but everything else failed to capture my attention. the writing isnt terrible and CNs creativity is obvious, but this was unfortunately just missing that “spark” for me.
thanks, redhook books, for the ARC.
