Starting a new series!

I just started Promises and Pomegranates two days ago. I am very much obsessed so far. Ir cam be hard for me to get into a story at first. Right from the start it has grabbed my attention. This is apart of the Monsters and Muses Series. This particular book is a retelling of Hades and Persephone in a more modern context. Definitely goibg to make some #falllfood to snack on while reading. #mythoughtsonthisbook #monstersandmusesseries #booktok #Lemon8Diary #lemon8dairy

... Read moreIf you're intrigued by modern retellings of classic myths, 'Promises and Pomegranates' is just the beginning. Many readers find that contemporary interpretations of Greek mythology, like those seen in popular literature, breathe new life into traditional stories. The Monsters and Muses Series delves into such tales, offering fresh perspectives and characters that resonate with current audiences. As you immerse yourself in this novel, you may also want to explore other famous retellings that capture the complexities of love, power, and identity. These themes often find themselves woven throughout various adaptations, making for enriching reading experiences. For instance, consider titles such as 'Lore' by Alexandra Bracken or 'The Song of Achilles' by Madeline Miller, both of which take classic Greek myths and reinterpret them in ways that are relatable and compelling. Additionally, the resurgence of interest in mythology can be linked to the rise of platforms like BookTok, where readers openly share their personal connections to these narratives, thereby fostering a vibrant community of myth lovers. Don't forget to pair your reading with seasonal snacks that enhance the experience—think cozy autumn treats that make your literary journey even more enjoyable!

*read me!!* I could make a whole series on this topic! But we’ll start with these that were super big learning curves for me ❤️❤️ 1. Hook sizes make a huge difference! The smaller the hook, the tighter your work will look when you’re done crocheting and this is especially important for plushies
