'I'm a liar, to begin with.'
I wasn't always a goddess, you see. My only real power was my beauty - you'll have heard. It's legendary. But that was never going to be enough for me.
It took a web of lies to convince the gods of Olympus I was one of them. But I did. I was that good. Zeus gave me a title and riches and loved me. And all he wanted in return was for me to love him back.
But of course, Zeus was a tyrant. (Not entirely surprising when you're ninety per cent insecurities and ten per cent raw power.) I couldn't live at someone's mercy. Really, I had no choice. I had to take on the mightiest Olympian of all. And this bit's not a lie... I intended to win.
A wonderful tale set in Ancient Greece where a being with no power rises to the very top by outwitting other gods all while maintaining a sense of exactly who she is - a goddess who intends to always do it her way.
Perfect for fans of Ferdia Lennon, Madeline Miller and Jennifer Saint

Love, love, love!
You can not imagine how happy I was when I found out we'd get a new book by Phoenicia Rogerson! I absolutely loved her first book about Hercules and Aphrodite did not disappoint either! I absolutely love the way she tells a story, especially her humor. Though I can imagine this might not be to everyone's taste, it for sure is for me. Aphrodite's story is one that is often overlooked or brushed aside and this book gives us a completely new point of view. It's amazing, really. One of my favorite releasses this year.
