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. Fed up with prescription meds and therapists, she wishes for 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 a vicious attack and learning that her favorite rockstar is an Olympian god, she is thrust into her new life as the Oracle of Delphi, the prophesier of the future. Setting out to fulfill the prophecy she has been given, Chloe learns of how great she is to become, all the while fighting mythical monsters and trying to outwit the ever-cunning Greek gods who harbor secrets of their own. While on a mission to discover the Most Beautiful, 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.

When a prophecy worries even the Gods, then it is going to be bad. For everyone. I would love to meet some of the Olympian Gods and ask them questions. However Chloe does not get the chance to made a decision. She finds that she knows a God, a Demigod, and that she is an Oracle. Before she can react to this news the Gods go back to causing trouble and hiding secrets. Chloe is in the middle and she also learns that her actions will affect the world. This was an interesting book for me and I studied the Gods in school so I knew the background of Olympian etc. I am looking forward to the next installment. I am giving this book a 4/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
