My Rating: 3.5/5

Hey there guys, this week I’m reviewing Goddess Interrupted by Aimee Carter. This is the second book in the Goddess Test series and I’m glad I continued to read in this series.  This series was something that I fell in love immediately. I liked the idea of having a way to connect with Greek Mythology without rereading the Percy Jackson series (excellent for the middle school age, but make me feel ancient now -.-) I have to admit that I was a little disappointed in this instalment of the series. I feel like the characters have degraded or simply morphed into people I don’t really care about. Their views on things changed and some of them no longer melted my heart, but made me want to shout at them. Like if they were real people I would have lost it a little. And there’s another thing. I like to lose myself in books and feel like the characters are real, but I just couldn’t this time.

Oh well, hopefully the next book with change my mind.

All in all, this book was ok. It had some high points, but I couldn’t see myself wanting to reread this one anytime soon.   

THANK YOU AIMEE CARTER FOR SHOWING SOME MORE MYTHOLOGY!

Thanks for reading,

Love,

Sidny xoxo
