Divine Might: Goddesses in Greek Myth by Natalie Haynes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
An intermediate overview of the female goddesses in Greek Myth, nicely tied to modern, even recent adaptations in pop culture.
But no worries, Haynes proves once again that she's got her finger on the pulse on the classics. An enjoyable read. Indeed, I take it back. It is also good as a primer on this subset of the Greeks. I particularly enjoyed the passages about Artemis and the Furies.
