planned. However, when Ares, god of war, and Aphrodite’s crush notices Athena, Aphrodite feels jealous. Now, there is a rumor going around the school saying that she was dating Hephaestus, a scrawny godboy with a limp! Can Aphrodite get out of the situation?!

This is an amazing twist about the Greek Gods and Goddesses. This book can be an introduction to the greek mythologies or a fun story to read after learning about them. With characters from the mythologies, readers will be able to relate this book and the real mythologies together. The read is relatively easy and fast paced. The cover illustration shows what Aphrodite, Ares, and Hephaestus look like and it is a mix between Disney’s Hercules and Bratz.

It’s a great book for readers who love Greek mythology and school life. The readers will love Aphrodite and her friends and will want to read more about the other characters.

A cute addition to the series. It's nice to see the girls reacting to teenage drama in a realistic fashion (their emotions being realistic, not their powers). I enjoyed this.

Super cute! Not my favorite, I think mostly because Aphrodite is a little too girlish for my taste, but I see young girls loving her! More soon.
