Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they will post a new Top Ten list that one of the bloggers there at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join!
Today’s Top Ten Tuesday post asks us to come up with a ten books for fans of X-type thing. I had a bit of trouble settling on a topic, but in the end decided to go with my old standby, which is Mythology Retellings. So here is a list of Ten Mythology Retellings you should read if you like Rick Riordan.
1) Vessel by Sarah Beth Durst
2) Fury by Shirley Marr
3) Valkyrie Rising by Ingrid Paulson
4) All Our Pretty Songs by Sarah McCarry
5) The Goddess Test books by Aimee Carter
6) Touch of Frost by Jennifer Estep
7) Olympians series by George O’Connor
8) Fury series by Elizabeth Miles
9) Persephone by Kaitlin Bevis
10) Zeus Grants Stupid Wishes by Cory O’Brien
So those are the books on my list this week! Which topic did you do? Please link me!
I haven’t read any of these books but I should since so many students love Rick Riordan. I am copying your titles down right now.

Oh! Great topic choice! Persephone is my favorite Greek myth, so I will definitely be checking out the retellings of that myth on your list!

Thank you!
I’m always looking for more mythology retelling books and they seem so hard to find. I haven’t read any of these, so I will look at this list next time i’m craving mythology!

Percy Jackson is the only myth retelling I’ve read, so I’ll be having a look at all of these :-) Nice list!
I’ve seen fury around so much now…. I think I should finally get it. My TTT is here
I was told a long time ago that I should read The Goddess Test but I never got around to it but I might have to reconsider it now!
Great post =)

Hi, Merin! This is an awesome list–I didn’t know All Our Pretty Songs was a mythological retelling! There are some others here I want to look into, too, so thanks for that! I also did retellings for my topic, though a bit more broad than yours–you can find it here, if you’re interested: https://betwixtthesepages.wordpress.com/2015/09/29/top-ten-tuesday/
I love fairytale retellings, but I don’t read nearly enough mythology retellings. I’ll have to look these up!
I did books you should read if you like Percy Jackson this week!
