(Review) Prophecy of the Most Beautiful by Diantha Jones

Title: Prophecy of the Most Beautiful
Author:  Diantha Jones
Pages: Approx 268
Format: Ebook

Description: 

 She has a destiny so great that even the gods fear her.

Constant hallucinations and the frequent conversations with the voices in her head, have earned eighteen-year-old Chloe Clever the not-so-coveted title of "Whack Job" in her home town of Adel, Georgia. With the onslaught of prescription medications and therapists threatening to push her over the edge, she wishes for a life far away from the one she has, a life where she is destined to be more than the butt of everyone's jokes and mockery.

Be careful what you wish for has never rung more true.

After living through an attack from her worst nightmare, she awakens to find herself far from home, surrounded by glorious riches and servants…and a few demigods who enjoy killing things. Upon learning that her favorite rock-star is an Olympian god, she is thrust into her new life as the Oracle of Delphi, the prophesier of the future, and the great Pythia that the gods have been anxiously awaiting to arrive for centuries. Setting out to fulfill the prophecy she has been given and to keep her family safe from a demigod Princess that wants her dead, Chloe learns of how great she is to become, all the while fighting mythical monsters, evading divine assassins and trying to outwit the ever-cunning Greek gods who harbor secrets of their own. In the hopes of discovering the Most Beautiful and the truth of her destiny, she strives to uncover the mysteries of the demigod Prince who has sworn to protect her with his life…and threatens to win her heart in the process.


Review:

Prophecy of the Most Beautiful by Diantha Jones is a creative and captive read. The plot runs smoothly and the characters are interesting. The setting surrounds Greek Mythology and action. There's action and adventure throughout the entire book, which pulled me right in. I'm not normally one to read books within this genre but I must say that I am glad I read this one.

I fell in love with the main characters and found myself going through a variety of emotions thorough out the book. I found myself laughing out loud and next to tears. I am definitely looking forward to the next book within this series Prophecy of the Setting Sunrise. I give this book 4 **** stars.
