It's so nice to go back and re-read the story, better to own my own copy. I'm still enjoying the modern settings and the way that Smythe has reconstructed the characters as she tells her narrative. It's a definite slow burn between Hades and Persephone here.
A lot of additional characters have their moments to allow the story to build on what was already introduced in the previous volumes.
pickDRAAAAAMAAAAA! What else can one expect from Olympians, honestly? While I admit I occasionally get tired of the 'will they, won't they' that is the backbone of this series, it continues to have relatable conversations about relationships, and there was an important confrontation I'd been waiting on, in this volume. For now, still interested in continuing.
pickIt's getting addictive... You just want to know what happens next.
Rachel Smythe integrates very smoothly phones and social media into her stories, which actually few authors manage to do well. It's really a plus for me.
A lot of interesting themes too: sexual violence, toxic relationships, boundaries, love, friendship, etc.
My library request came in at last! #graphicnovel #greekgods #squee
pickThese are easy five star reads for me! So glad I finally got my hands on them, and now I‘m anxiously awaiting October for the fifth volume to come out! #rushathon
pickUh, Zeus? EVERYBODY thinks you‘re a bad husband. You‘re kind of the definition of bad husband.
Another great installment. I wish I‘d reread the previous books before diving in, because I thought I‘d remember where the story left off but was a little muddled. Still, a great series. I think the next book is due in October or so. Sigh. I love the way Smythe handles trauma and mental health in general.
pickJust love it… Now to wait for the next one. #NotAnotherGraphicMonday
Needed a break from the daddy day blues. Drowning myself in this beautiful #GraphicNovel #NotAnotherGraphicMonday
pickI'm truly enjoying this series. I love how there are so many God's and Goddesses and how they each have such quirky elements. I can see why this was such a popular Web Toon.
pick…and I‘m done. 😭😭 I love this series so much I love the art, the colors, and the storylines. It is the slowest of slow burn romances, which is not my favorite, but ugh. It‘s so beautiful, I adore Hades and Persephone and Smythe‘s version of Greek Mythology.
I have six books I am supposed to finish by the end of the month and most of them are chunksters or near-chunksters. BUT, I went to my happy place this morning and I will be reading none of what I‘m supposed to today. Instead I will be devouring Lore Olympus Vol. 4. #sorrynotsorry #bookhaul
pickOf course it was fantastic. This retelling of Hades and Persephone, an Eisner Award winning comic, keeps getting better and better. Love the art, the colors, and the story which brings this myth into the modern age. Highly recommended.
pickI‘ve said it before and I‘ll say it again - I know I can read this for free online (and I have), but catch me buying every volume and putting it on a special place on my bookshelf.
#NCBD and the tagged book is a definite highlight. Also, lots of Star Wars, Love Everlasting, Dark Knights of Steel (superheroes in medieval times), a new Fence comic and a Skottie Young variant. So much fun reading!
Stop everything! My special print edition of Lore Olympus Volume 4 has arrived. GASP.

Oh snap! Kore isn‘t putting up with anymore shit!

I came across this book via a B&N post on Facebook. Every time I go to the bookstore the covers catch my eye.
I‘m sure there are Littens who have read it. Recommend the series?
