— I shall either find a way or make one.

I enjoyed this so much. I was a little skeptical because of the Greek mythology, but truly, it plays such a little part. Our FMC is hilarious. You will laugh. You will scream. And then you’ll laugh again. The whole premise of this is so much fun to learn about and I think the author did a great job of building out the world in this. 

finished it in one day - sometimes the dialogue really took me out of the world building but still page turning!

Really really enjoyed this book, very different concept to a lot of books, I love mythology and loved the new take, was dark and twisted but funny and had me holding my breath, really enjoyed!

This book is such a trip. I highly recommend via audio because the narrator brought the FMC’s sarcasm absolutely to life. 

This book is not for everyone. To me it’s a dark romance first, fantasy second. I’ve never read Zodiac Academy but maybe it would be similar? It has all the hallmarks of a bully romance where they go overboard to her face but then secretly protect (only in some ways). 

The whole trials thing is extreme and you never know who is going to die but idk I had a fun time. I’ve actually never had that much fun with a dark romance before. It’s a slow burn in this book but I have a feeling the next one things are about to explode. 

Thank you to htp hive and Harlequin audio for the ALC!

3.8/5  Overall I enjoyed this book. I loved the lore but also didn't quite like some of the writing choices. If you can survive a bit of fanfiction vibes scattered throughout the book and continue reading it did seem worth it (at least to me). Also love the subtle hints dropped for plot twists and the ending which perfectly sets the scene for a second book.

I'm just a girl. And it turns out, I'm Hercules.

I'm struggling to survive in a Titan infested world where Spartans, immortals from twelve royal families who have god-like powers and obscene wealth, rule over all. A shy-stammering foster child with nothing, I keep my head down, cover my scars, and focus on excelling in school. At least, I try to. Then it happens.

My blood test reveals I'm part of the powerful elite. I'm one of them. A Spartan.

Forced to attend the Spartan War Academy, I undergo the most harrowing test of all time to see if I have what it takes to be an immortal. There's just a few problems. Achilles and Patro are my scary mentors. Kharon, the ferryman of death, and Augustus, the son of war, are my terrifying professors. Also, I'm pretty sure either someone's stalking me everywhere I go, or my sanity's slipping––I have a bad feeling both are true.

I'm surrounded by Villains and they're smothering me with their hate, obsession, and dark possessiveness. Too bad for them, they have no clue just who they're messing with.
