The gender transfer is seemlessly written and gives the feel that they’ve alway been this wayWhilst the original stories have been carried on through the ages, I believe that these gender swapped myths will also carry forward for our future generations. 🏛️ BOOK TOUR REVIEW 🏛️🏺Gender Swapped Greek Myths 🏺 by Karrie Fransman & Jonathan PlackettImagine a world where seductive male sirens lure brave heroines to their death, where Icara and her mother fly too close to the sun, and where beautiful men are forced to wed underworld queens .

In these stories, brutality and bravery are reserved for men, while women are wicked witches or helpless maidens. Karrie and Jonathan love these stories, and have found a way to breathe new life into them by making one crucial change. You all know I love pretty books and this one is definitely that 😍 I also love Greek Myths and loved the sound of them being gender swapped. For thousands of years, Greek myths have been told and retold.

From the tale of Medusa & Perseus to Persephone & Hades to Odysseus and the Sirens, each one expertly swapped and paired with utterly stunning illustrations - this is a book for everyone’s shelves. Today, these myths continue to shape our ideas about justice, tragedy and what makes a hero's journey. This is one book that I can’t wait to share with my boys 😍#GreekMyths #GreekMythology #GenderSwappedGreekMyths #Bookish #Bookstagram #ReadAndReview #BeautifulBooks #PrettyBooks
