Abandon by Meg Cabot is a retelling of the classic Greek myth of Hades and Persephone. Now I love, love, love Meg Cabot, but this book didn't hold my interest nearly as much as some of the others. Maybe it's because of the whole Greek-myth-basis. AGAIN. Is it just me, or is EVERYBODY writing retellings lately? Ever since Percy Jackson, people have gotten caught up in the whole Greek Gods thing, and it's getting a little tiring. Maybe I'm being prejudiced, though. If you like the Greek trend, go for it. It is a pretty well-written book, I just couldn't get over the cliche-ed-ness of it.
