Adonis, Aphrodite's son, has auditioned for the latest big talent show, and her dad has disappeared off with his new girlfriend. I am so grateful that you came because the interest in reading in some of the students has gone high. Damien is the principal of a school there, and all the students are descendants of the Greek gods and goddesses. Not to mention, kalau di akademi tersebut hanya Phoebe seorang nothos - manusia biasa , sementara yang lainnya adalah keturunan Hades, Zeus, Hera dll.Most often they zap pieces of paper to each other and change the writing so that they can communicate privately, without speaking.

While I was willing to go along with the mythological school idea, despite it's awful setup - Phoebe's mom goes to Greece to visit her long dead husband's family (why? Speaking of, it was so wonderfully refreshing how diverse this book was, and how diversity was an active discussion in the book.And she can’t even invite her friends round – ‘No visitors’ is one of the strict house rules – because this side of the family are hiding a massive secret. It was a wonderful event and fantastic to see the pupils engaging so well with the concepts surrounding Greek gods and teen fiction. The discipline of Classics is still confronting its role in racist and sexist power structures and projects like The People’s History of Classics, based at KCL, are trying to de-toxify the field. She's updated the whole "gods are real" trope that's so popular in romantic fiction these days to include teens.

I had expected things to be a bit more fleshed out so I was a little let-down, but definitely pick it up if you're looking for something light-hearted! Lastly, There needed to be more of Justin in the beginning of the book if they were going to bring him into other parts of the book, because it just seemed really random. Why not one of those obsessive-compulsive, needy women who would actually move halfway across the world with a man they’ve known for six days and claim it’s love? Despite being descended from the Gods who are known for things like lightening bolts, or controlling the seas, or love, all the kids have exactly the same "powers", and that power is "zapping".There is also a sequel out I plan to pick up and save for a time when I need some cute, simple, uncomplicated reading! Phoebe takes in the fact that she's going to a school for descendants of the Gods pretty quickly and the characters 'powers' didn't seem thought out.
