So I want to read a stand alone right now for a change. I am not a real romance fan. I am okay with romance in the book but not when the plot is romance if that makes sense
I am also looking for some Greek mythology books. Theres a lot of retellings but I want to read the original lore but not like a textbook and a greek mythology book I have is 3 pages long for Zeus's section for example. 3 pages wouldnt be enough to explain the family tree let alone with Zeus but I don't want to feel like I am reading an academic journal. I don't want to really read a retelling of Hera, Icarus, Circe, etc without knowing the original story.
Any recommendations both random (not romance) or greek mythology suggestions are appreciated.

Mythos by Stephen Fry, told in a story format for modern ears. From the Titans through to the Olympians in chronological order. A great book
These are books that I enjoyed that are not romance:
Six Days in Bombay by Alka Joshi
Mad Honey by Jodi Picoult
Those empty eyes by Charlie Donlea
The only one left by Riley Sager
The curious kitten at Chibineko Kitchen
The quiet tenant by Clemence Michallon
