This book was amazing, the characters were extremely well-written and I really enjoyed to either love or hate them! Circe is a resilient character, with a strong sense of self and it's so refreshing to read about such a personality; she is a woman who knows what she wants and does what is in her power in order to get it unapologetically. The novel is a deep-dive into her thoughts during famous events from Greek mythology. There's maturity, but also subjectivity from a morally grey character, who became it not by selfishness, but by experience. I would also like to send kudos to the French narrator for the audiobook, she made me love this story even more!! 

This book was going to be 4 stars until I read the final chapter and all I have to say is: Madeline Miller you messed me up once again
