I was so excited to read this Greek mythology based romance. The two main characters Perseus and Medusa are classic characters who could not be more different yet the author wrote them beautifully and emphasized the commonalities of the characters. It was sort of enemies to lovers. She definitely hated him more but he was more curious about her, I love when he falls first. Overall this was a great take on a classic Greek myth and a ton of fun to read. There is so much going on in the plot and not a dull moment.

This just failed to grab my attention. It was extremely boring from the get go and really failed to connect some material.

Crown of Serpents is an exciting retelling of the Perseus and Medusa myth, with a twist that focuses on female rage and adventure, and focuses on Medusa as a person rather than another boring hero who slays the evil Gorgon (lets admit it, Greek mythology loves to recycle the same plots where a woman can only be a victim in need of saving or a monster in need of slaying).

Medusa’s character shines with complexity, her motivations layered with a depth that makes her both formidable and sympathetic.

Reed’s retelling is engaging, especially for fans of Greek mythology who enjoy alternate perspectives.
While some parts felt a bit rushed and predictable, it was a compelling read that will keep me hooked until the end. If you like mythology with strong female leads and action-packed plots, this book is definitely worth checking out.

Greek mythology AND enemies-to-lovers? Yes, please.
With a side of female rage. Sign me up!

I loved this reimagining of the classical myth. It put such a fresh spin on it & reading about Medusa getting her revenge was very VERY satisfying.

The brooding and absolutely swoon-worthy love interest (aka Perseus) certainly didn't hurt! I hope there will be a book 2.
