    Have you read the series by Rick Riordan great books i loved them i also love greek mythology as well. The Percy Jackson and the Olympians series. Great book. Ummm idk much other greek mythology books but i know alot of other great books and you don't really have to be intellectual to read books because after reading several advanced books they boost your vocabulary so yeah it's fine. Ummm Alex rider series like Stormbreaker they're good books. Harry potter :P The Black Tattoo. If your into vampire stuff like twilight you could read that series, Twilight, also other series called Vampire Diaries.

    Hatchet

    The call of the wild

    Artemis Fowl series

    mostly everything that's popped up in my mind i guess.

    To kill a mockingbird's Decent in my opinion

    Well, the ones I have are "Heroes, Gods and Monsters of the Greek Myths" by Bernard Evslin. Didn't interest me much, but the one I actually read was "Greek Myths" by Olivia Coolidge.
