    Publisher’s Synopsis: Go the Distance, the 11th book in the New York Times best-selling series asks, what if Meg had to become a Greek god? 

    After Hercules proves he’s a true hero and regains his godship, all seems right in the world. That is, until Zeus tells Meg that she can’t be with Hercules because she’s, well, mortal. Luckily, Hera has a solution, offering Meg a chance to prove herself worthy of a spot on Mt. Olympus–as a god. All Meg has to do is complete a mysterious quest.

    The mission? Oh, just to rescue her ex’s current wife from the Underworld. The ex-boyfriend she saved by selling her soul to Hades. The ex-boyfriend who immediately moved on to someone else while she was stuck in the Underworld. Can Meg put her past behind her and use her quick-wit to defeat monsters and gods alike, including the nefarious Hades? Will she finally figure out her place and contribution to the world? Or will her fear of commitment have her running away from an eternity of godhood with Herc? Written by the author of Mirror, Mirror and Conceal, Don’t Feel, Jen Calonita’s latest twist is sure to delight and surprise.

      We love all things Disney and reading about Greek Mythology in our home. My daughter would be thrilled if I won this for her. Thanks for the chance of owning a copy for our book collection.

      I love Disney and Greek mythology! I think Disney can introduce a new generation of youngsters to the lessons illuminated in mythology. I love sharing my “wins” with the children’s specialist at my local library where I volunteer.

      I love Disney and Greek mythology! There is a lot of wisdom in myths and Disney does a good job of updating it for the modern reader.

      I am a former teacher and my grandkids in Ca have followed my interest in reading and I am so glad, I have a grandson who is in 9th grade who has been thru a lot as I live in Ia I have done all I can to help him with his reading and improve it. He is behind which is not in any way his fault as he loves getting books and reading them. He has improved as the more he reads it makes me so proud he has a bad stutter that he has to overcome also and that has caused quite a few problems with his peer, I am happy he is a big boy meaning tall and can take what he gets and knows he is better than them. this would help him so much as Disney has been one of the several books that I have and will continue to send him from me as they write books that are easy to understand and also gives kids like him books that are fun to read, I have to say he is even quoting to me so I can write the reviews for him and he loves it!

      We love Disney and this has an interesting twist to it. The colors in the eye shadow palette are perfect for a tween or teen.
