My Favourite Hades and Persephone Retellings

Hello Readers, I have a slight confession apparently; I am a Hades groupie. At the beginning of the year I reread the Hades & Persephone Series By: Scarlett St. Clair then read “some” smut I found on Kindle Unlimited and I was like okay we need to move past Hades this is a slight obsession. Then in came Melinda Salisbury with Her Dark Wings and I found myself back under the thralls of the King of the Underworld. Today I thought I would share with you some of my favourites I have come across and this list will include smutty books, but I will mark them as so in case that’s not something you wouldn’t like to read. In this post I won’t be discussing the smut aspect but the retelling itself. Her Dark Wings by Melinda Salisbury I honestly cannot stop gushing about this book. This book is set in a modern world where worship of the Greek Gods is the dominant faith. If you love a Greek myth retelling, this book must be on your radar. It’s smart and thoughtful and goes places u...

Kaos Netflix Review

Hello Readers, I haven’t been this excited for a tv series in a while I mean Jeff Goldblum play Zues I was sold. this post is not sponsored I am just sharing the love of a series I adore. I am using a poster image I have found through google I do not own any rights and am using the image for review purposes (Fair use under the copyright act sections 29 and 30 under use for a review). This eight-part series on Netflix is a reimagining of Greek mythology that is intricate, intelligent, funny, and brutal. I am going to try keep this review spoiler free, but I am going to include a list of all the mythological characters included in the series for my fellow Greek mythology lovers. This series is set in the modern age in an alternate reality where the Greek Gods and Legends just happen to sit smack in the middle of existence, doing what they do best: killing and rebelling. I really like the way the Greek Gods have been portrayed in this series. The gods are spoilt,...

Rereading Wicked by Gregory Maguire

Happy Halloween Readers, I have already posted a review of Wicked for Halloween back in 2018. With the movie release just around the corner on the 22 November I had to reread the book. Also please DO NOT buy this book for child as it covers some harsh topics, I know it looks nice and friendly with the movie tie in cover but please don’t be fooled. Trigger Warnings: Sexual Content, Animal Cruelty, Bullying, Racism and Classism. I love wicked and have done since I saw the Musical when I was a teenager. Originally, I adored Gregory’s origin story for the “Wicked Witch of the West” who he has named Elphaba. Stick with me on this path for a second but I have also been fortunate to see the musical a couple of times in the West End and I think that has slightly rose tinted my view on the book. I’m not saying I didn’t enjoy rereading the book there was just some bits I had clearly forgotten and was like “Oh yeah…Now I remember”. Despite that little negative I love the origin s...
