I love Greek mythology and I’ve been wanting to read this for so long and I’m glad that I finally did. The book starts with Circe’s younger days and continues on as she explores and finds her true self. Anyone familiar with Greek Mythology will recognize most of the characters and their stories. This is such a great retelling. However, there were a few parts that kind of crept by and felt less interesting than others. Other parts had me completely enthralled, but then it would get to a slow part and start to lose me a bit.
Overall, I loved this book. I definitely recommend it to all Greek Mythology lovers.

Circe was led down by her own family but she made one for herself with her glory. Love the character development.

It's a heavy book. However, very much worth the read, and
