Prompt - A book inspired by mythology, legend, or folklore: Greek and Celtic Mythology.

I've had this book and a few others by this author on the TBR for years but hadn't gotten to them, and I'm honestly kicking myself for that right now because this was awesome. This was everything I love about UF/PR done extremely well.

It was a lot, and there were times where the characters did something that annoyed me or seemed a stereotypical trope for the genre, but this was so well thought out that those behaviors were explained. That is awesome. I can't even fully explain how well thought out this was because it ties directly into the plot and progression of the story. But, trust me, it was great. The writing was kind of clunky in parts and repetitive in others, but I liked the story so much that I'm willing to overlook it. Yes, you read that correctly. Me, Mrs Rip Your Prose Apart, is willing to overlook something.

I was engaged from the start and only put it down when I had to be a responsible adult. Unfortunately, the author has seemed to vanish back into real life and there haven't been any subsequent series or other works to sink into, so I'm extra thankful that I got to read this and still have a few other stories from her.

Happy reading!
