Lore by Alexandra Bracken – ARC Review

This book was provided as a digital galley by NetGalley and Disney Publishing Worldwide in exchange for an honest review.

One-Sentence Summary:

Lore joins forces with a goddess and two childhood friends to get revenge against the man who killed her family.

My Review:

LORE was just so unique. I love Greek mythology and I’ve read a lot of books including it, but LORE was just so different from the rest. 
One thing necessary in all books, but especially standalones because there’s less content, is remaining unpredictable. While I guessed at the relationships and a very early plot twist, everything else truly remained a mystery until it was on the page. I never like main characters but this crew was so amazing.
I feel like I need to devote a special section in this review to how empowering LORE was. The patriarchy was a big factor in the Agon, the seven day fight between all of the hunters and gods, particularly because of how large a role tradition played. One of my favorite parts of the book just had two powerful women talking about the strength men only took advantage of and couldn’t see.
The greatness of LORE is just beyond comprehension. READ THIS BOOK.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5.

I live in the United States in the Northeast. I love to read and it’s my main hobby. I mainly read fantasy novels, but most books are ones that I enjoy.
