I didn't dislike this book, not really. I did, however, struggle to keep my attention on it. While the story could have been good (and I'm a sucker for books righting the wrongs that mythology has done to some women, in the vein of Circe), but I found the writing and the characters to be very flat. None of the characters seemed especially fleshed out, though I couldn't tell you why (maybe it was just the quality of the writing),and the story suffered badly for it. 

I read this book in three more-or-less equal sections, and the middle section was by far my favourite.
