#OUABC Once Upon a Book Club July 2024 Monthly Box (Wrath of the Goddess) • 5 Stars
Daughters of Olympus reimagines the ancient Greek mythology of Demeter and Persephone, diving into the tumultuous relationship between a goddess of harvest and her daughter, who becomes the queen of the underworld.
• Demeter: The goddess of agriculture, whose love for her daughter Persephone is both profound and possessive. When Persephone is taken by Hades, Demeter's grief causes the world to wither, leading to the creation of seasons.
• Persephone: Initially depicted as innocent, her journey into the underworld transforms her. She's not just a victim but a figure who finds her own power and agency, challenging the traditional narrative.
• Hades: Often seen as the villain, Lynn's portrayal might give him more depth, exploring his motivations beyond mere abduction.
