Great Goddesses: Life Lessons from Myths and Monsters by Nikita Gill
Written as a combination of free-form poetry and lyrical prose, this is a beautiful retelling of the stories of the Greek Pantheon, working its way from the earliest Primordials, through Titans, Olympians, and mortal heroes. An excellent introduction or revisiting of Greek mythology, a detailed index can keep anyone up to speed on the backgrounds of each figure. We even get a glimpse at what the gods may be up to in today's world, and the illustrations by the author are beautiful.
I would recommend this for any fan of mythology!
