I really loved this book. I have been on a roll of reading mythological retellings lately and this was great. I did not know the story of Clytemnestra so I had no background information or expectations on what I was going to read. I am so glad I picked up this book. Clytemnestra's story is about family, betrayal, strength and loss. And so much loss it was heartbreaking! The author did such a fantastic job telling the story that I could feel my heart drop with grief several times during the book. At some points, I felt like crying for Clytemnestra while at other times I was so mad at a character I wanted to scream. You really go on an emotional roller-coaster! This was the first book I have read from this author and I am looking forward to more of her work. I highly recommend this book for readers who like mythology retellings. This was one of the best I have read.
