Aphrodite, jealous of the mortal Psyche, asks Eros (Cupid) to hit her with a cursed arrow. The god of love finds himself accidentally in love for the first time instead. Psyche also falls in love with him but they are cursed to be torn away from one another if she ever looks upon his face. I’m not familiar with the story of Psyche and Eros so I’m not sure how this retelling compares, but I enjoyed it. One of the few mythologies that actually has a happy ending!
It was a rough start especially knowing the myth as well as I did, but by the end it was still a good read. Changing some of the characters around was a meh for me, but I see why it was done. Also including the others in it was an interesting twist as well. Overall it was enjoyable for sure.
i wasn’t too familiar with the myth of psyche and eros before beginning this book and i think if i was i would’ve had some different opinions since she’s taken a lot of liberties with it and changed a lot of things but i honestly couldn’t care less i still really enjoyed reading this !! she’s no madeline miller of course (don’t think anyone could compare to her) but it was definitely captivating and kept me invested right until the end
