Set at the prestigious Mount Olympus Academy, Artemis along with her best friends Athena, Persephone, and Aphrodile, and her twin brother Apollo are there to learn to master their skills. When Orion, a new student to the academy enrolls, Artemis, who's usually the brave one is learning to deal with feelings she has when she's around Orion. Orion is a little too sure of himself and a little to selfish to really care about others around him. Artemis learns to over come the feelings of what it's like when your first crush doesn't like you the way you like them and the importance of being a true friend.

Joan and Suzanne have done a brilliant job with their unique spin on Greek mythology with their Goddess Girls series. They've made a series for young readers, that is relatable and enjoyable to read. I think this is a fantastic series for kids ages 8-12. The characters are great, and even though they are immortal and have godly powers, they are still easy for girls to relate to, as they deal with much of the same things they are dealing with.

I liked that the story has a little bit of everything. I got to see the girls together in action, as they learn to master their skills with some of the mythological beasts. I liked seeing Artemis and her brother Apollo at their archery competition, and while also seeing the girls dealing with normal girl stuff like crushes and friendship.

I recommend picking up this series today, and picking up your copy of Artemis The Brave, the 4th book the Goddess Girls series which releases TODAY!
