***** 3.5 Stars ***** 
 I have some mixed feelings about Paper Fools. There are some elements I absolutely adored, and there are others that I didn't care too much for. 
 The story takes place in the modern world, and the Greek gods entertain themselves by having competitions involving humans. 
 Aphrodite is the next goddess to play, and her opponent is Apollo. Aphrodite hasn't lost in years and doesn't plan on losing anytime soon. Especially since Apollo is the reason why her lover was killed. 
 The humans involved in the game are Lex and Dean. They're both damaged and don't know how to handle relationships. The attraction between then is strong, but Lex can't do much because her boyfriend is the drummer in Dean's band. 
 The majority of the issue in the story for Lex and Dean is the idea of cheating and having commitment issues. I really like the two lovers, but to me their relationship wasn't the star of the book. I was more interested in the gods and goddesses. 
 The idea of Greek gods competing against each other in the modern world is a unique idea. And it is probably the reason why I'm rounding my stars up. I loved the mythology, and I loved reading the background stories. 
 I'm interested in reading the next books, but I hope the human subjects in the next game are more interesting.
