Starcrossed: Review I love anything about greek mythology and this book is no different. This world building off the bat was mostly strong their are still some aspects of how people become demi gods that confused but  i am hoping my confusion will be cleared up in the next two novels. 
 
I really liked learning about helen and the demi god world from Lucas and how it seemed their relationships is already fraught with peril. i liked how the author really kept helena family in the loop even though the father was not directly part of this world. It makes me curious to find out who here father is now that we know she is no related to Lucas. I think that is may bring a lot of harm this these two characters and can't wait to see the fall out once the truth is out in the open.
 
I really fell hard for the character of lucas and hope that he gets to find his happy ending so way so how.

I like this book it was an interesting take on the Helen of Troy myth. ( )

I really enjoyed this book. Mythology based YA fiction is hot right now and some of what it is out there is simply dreadful. However, I found this book to be fairly well researched and well written with good characterization. It of course has the request romance in the story but I felt that it was well handled and not heavy handed like so often is the case. I think I also enjoyed this book because it took place close to home and even mentions the Nantucket Atheneum Library several times. ( )

Refreshing "youth finds herself in a world full of magic" novel. At times I thought it would turn into a Twilight love story but it found its way back. ( )

"Angelini is an amazing writer. She sets up a beautiful love story that has spanned the ages combined with an intense plot that keeps you turning the pages. Her writing is clear, descriptive, passionate, and at times humorous. One scene I was holding my breath and the next I was laughing out loud. A writer soon becomes one of my faves when she/he can pull off the love/hate relationship between characters, and Angelini smoked it with Helen and Lucas."

"Angelini weaves mythology and everyday high-school life into a tangled fantasy of star-crossed lovers. The riveting plot twists and turns as the myth's destiny translates into present-day terrors, dreams, and hopelessness, and its execution is seamless."

Helen always returns in her mind to the story of Oedipus: You meet your fate on the road you were taking to avoid it. Hers is a road I'm eager to travel; the second book in this series, "Dreamless," is slated for May 2012 — not soon enough, as far as I'm concerned. I haven't wanted a second book so much since "The Hunger Games."
