Manhattan has many secrets. Some are older than the city itself.
The city sleeps. Selene DiSilva walks her dog along the banks of the Hudson. She is alone—just the way she likes it. She doesn’t believe in friends, and she doesn’t speak to her family. Most of them are simply too dangerous.
In the predawn calm, Selene finds the body of a young woman washed ashore, gruesomely mutilated and wreathed in laurel. Her ancient rage returns. And so does the memory of a promise she made long ago—when her name was Artemis.
I love this book. It’s a great story, with some wonderful twists and turns, plus it’s set in NYC…which you know I’m just all about!! It’s a good read, perfect for relaxing in bed and, if it wasn’t winter, a trip to the beach. really enjoyable!!
Here’s a video intro to really get you into this book!
Check out some early praise:
“The Immortals is a lively re-imagining of classical mythology with an engaging premise, a page-turning plot, and an eye for the arresting and uncanny in contemporary urban life.” ―Deborah Harkness, New York Times bestselling author of A Discovery of Witches
“Brodsky’s writing has claws…They sink in with the first word and don’t let go until you are finished with the book.”―Darynda Jones, New York Times bestselling author
“Irresistible…a page-turner that deftly weaves action, romance, and a dash of intellectual heft into one seamless whole.” ―Dustin Thomason, New York Times bestselling author
“Plays with more modern mythology, employing New York’s own secret places and storied history to great effect. This intelligent, provocative fantasy breathes exciting new life into old, familiar tales.” ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)

We probably go to the movies once every month or two, we want to go more but somehow we never make the effort.

I go to the movies every few months. There always seems to be movies out in November and December that I want to see so usually a little more often then. I don't do girls night out for movies.

We maybe once every month or so. It's so expensive with a family of 5, so usually we watch movies at home.
