If you had told me that this book was written by Rick Riordan and set in the Percy Jackson universe I would have believed you. It felt like a Percy Jackson book and that is probably what I loved most about. Personally, I like to pretend that Wonder Woman is in the same universe as Percy Jackson.
The story is fast paced and moves quickly and told from two perspectives. I think I might have preferred the story to be told entirely from Diana's perspective but I understand why the author chose to tell it from not just hers. We get an outside perspective on Diana and how others see her and that does add some character depth and in the end, did help me to have a better picture of her.
The plot twist was unexpected and there were several unexpected plot twists. I think as far as a feminists perspective there is a diversity of characters and representation. I am not sure there were any particularly strong feminist themes in the novel but I do think it deserves to be on a list of feminist books because there are several female main characters and they are all well written and not just two dimensional.
I honestly wish there was a sequel to this book with another story from Wonder Woman. I want to know if Diana's home struggles are resolved.
