I review the book Mythology by Edith Hamilton. I burned through it in two and a half days and really enjoyed it. she recounts the classic stories and myths from Greek, Roman, and Norse antiquity that are important to western culture.
The stories from the Iliad, the Odyssey, Psyche and Cupid, Midas, Sigurd, and many other make it a fun read for anyone interested in the old myths.
I rate it a 10/10.
