The Dark Wife by Sarah Diemer
Fantasy/Mythology/Romance/LGBT
Summary: Three thousand years ago, a god told a lie. Now only a goddess can tell the truth.
264 pages.
My rating: B+
I love mythology and retellings, and lgbt subject matter, so as soon as I heard about this book, I had to find it. I’m so glad I did. Persephone is an excellently crafted character, as is Hades. All the supporting characters are very well presented, and the world as well. Diemer’s story fits well into the mythology, but makes it her own, a true and wonderful retelling.
If you like the myth of Persephone, I highly recommend this book. I will definitely be looking into other books by her.
