Oh. My. Gods.

I picked this book up not expecting it to be anything great. In fact, I knew nothing about it other than it had some greek mythology in it. I’m all about greek mythology so I figured–what the heck?

Oh. My. Gods. is about a girl named Phoebe who is uprooted from her home and friends in Southern California and moved to Greece for her senior year of high school. She got a little more than she bargained for.

This story was a pleasant surprise. I didn’t expect much and the story was a bit predictable, but I liked Phoebe, Damian, and Griffin as characters. I did want to see more of Phoebe’s and Stella’s relationship. There could have been a lot more development on that front. It was definitely the interactions between the characters (their relationships) that kept me interested in the story. I wanted to see how the story unfolded.

A fun read, all in all.
