Atalanta by Jennifer Saint
3.0
This book runs into the inescapable problem faced with retellings, especially Greek mythology retellings. Greek myths do not need to "make sense" in terms of the narrative. Thus, a retelling must choose between remaining faithful to the myth or changing aspects for a better narrative structure. Unfortunately, Atalanta writes itself into a corner with the love interests, making the ending extremely forced.
