Along with this line other authors have written books based on various mythologies, I was lucky enough to get Advance Reader Copies of the books.










































The characters represent such a wide variety of cultures and places that I have fallen in love with them all! I think it is really amazing to see the diversity represented by these novels as well as female protagonists. I will say Sal & Gabi Break the Universe has probably been my favorite so far!
