To be honest I bought this book because of the beautiful cover.
I thought it would be a mythological inspired book and more fantastical than it actually was. The book per se is not bad, it just didn't excite me and I thought it was kind of boring. Because of that I almost didn't finish it but I wanted to power through and I did.
In the blurb the book was described as funny which I cannot understand. To me it is just very socially critical and not in a funny way.
This book just doesn't fit my taste for literature at all.
Take care, love youâ„
