the absolute gawl of a woman to reply to this information with a link to a summary of the iliad. and to then claim she has read the whole of the iliad. this is like throwing out a three of spades to defeat a joker in the card game president. you win, yes, but at the extent of the dignity of your daughter. i recommend learning things about your mum, but to proceed with caution.

i loveeee greek mythology. i first read this book in middle school during my percy jackson phase, and i’ve read it many times since. i find it so interesting, and i think the way the stories are told in this book are a really great introduction to classic stories. this is my super beat up copy i’ve had for years

sobbed so hard all the way through the last few chapters of this… beautifully written, even if you aren’t typically someone who gravitates towards Greek mythology

Cassandra, a trojan princess, who could predict the future but was cursed so that no one would believe her. Which leads to troy's fall.
Clytemnestra was the wife of Agamemnon. While he was away at war, she took Aegisthus as her lover. When Agamemnon returned from Troy, she killed him to avenge the sacrifice of their daughter Iphigenia. Later, her son Orestes killed her in revenge.
I also have favorite romantic myths like:
Eros and psyche
Orpheus and Eurydice
Apollo and Hyacinthus
Achilles and Patroclus
Penelope and Odysseus

my parents favourite tv show, and in watching it i can come to the conclusion that oh. yes. i am your child. grateful that you didn’t board oceanic flight 815 and birth me on a dodge island so that i can watch a show about that happening to other people. when people (like my parents) tell you this is the greatest show of all time THEY ARE NOT LYING ! i am only on season 3 but the levels of mouth wide open out loud saying what the fuck that i have reached ? dare i say more shocking than back to back scream tv series halloween special episode reveal followed by its immediate cancellation. cannot express my lost obsession to you right now i am having way too much fun.
