Three high school girls become the avenging Furies of Greek legend.
We were only three angry girls, to begin with. Alix, the hot-tempered surfer chick; Stephanie, the tree-hugging activist; and me, Meg, the quiet foster kid, the one who never quite fit in. We hardly knew each other, but each of us nurtured a burning anger: at the jerks in our class, at our disappointing parents, at the whole flawed, unjust world.
We were only three angry girls, simmering uselessly in our ocean-side California town, until one day a mysterious, beautiful classmate named Ambrosia taught us what else we could be: Powerful. Deadly. Furious.
Why can't I wait?I'm a sucker for myths and legends. As soon as I heard about this novel I needed it. Three girls turning into furies? Bring it on.
In your "Why can't I wait?" you summed up every reason I'm looking forward to this one too!
ReplyDeleteI just read another book about Greek Gods and their mission to save the Furies who had been taken by an enemy. I immediately wanted to know more about the Furies. This book is now high on my radar! Thanks for sharing!
