Aphrodite Made Me Do It, by Trista Mateer 
★ ★ ★ ★ Loved it!
*
A bold, brave, creative, and relatable look into life as a woman in today’s world. With poems, prose, and art, this book checks all of the boxes. The correlation between the mythical Aphrodite, the poet, and women, in general, was exciting, fresh, and kept me intrigued throughout the whole book. 
*
This book is the perfect blend of lighthearted charm, of taking things with a grain of salt, and brutal honesty with more than a hint of colorful optimism. Looking for a poetry refresh? This book is easy to read, and will instantly have you running to research Aphrodite. A true expression of female power!
*
Here are just a few of my favorite quotes. Although, I annotated most of the book!
*
“I wrote my own story
And still said all the wrong things.”
*
“People expect all stories of abuse
to be loud and angry
but they're not.

Sometimes they're quiet and cruel
and swept under the rug.”
*
“Not all gods are born.
Plenty of us rise.”
*
Some trigger warnings to consider: Body Image, Sexual Assault, Rape, Eating Disorders, Queer-phobia, Emotional Abuse, and Physical Abuse.
