Of course, since Aphrodite is the goddess of love and beauty, she does everything in her power to provide beauty products for him, making him feel disheartened by his appearances. In fact, he’s suffering from normal teenage beauty problems-pimples and braces and a gangly teenage body. #NICE SHOT CUPID SERIES#While it isn’t the best series to offer children when you want to teach them what we know as the Greek myths, it does make for an enjoyable read, especially when you already know the stories! In this story, Cupid isn’t as hot as you think the god of love should be. She has modernized the Greek gods and goddesses, giving them unique personalities and very human problems. "Reading Nice Shot, Cupid! reminded me of how much I love McCullan’s Myth-O-Mania series, where Hades tells us the ‘true’ stories behind Greek myths. Hades, King of the Underworld, is here to shine some light on what really happened. Instead, he and Zeus cooked up a plan to kidnap Psyche.
