circe was imperfect just like every woman i know :’) the character development left me feeling inspired, if only we all had centuries of life to learn and grow. miller’s writing wove the story so well, and kept me turning the pages until i was done.

I’ve read some of Miller’s other work, and I’d rate it highly. Unfortunately Circe just wasn’t for me. I found it quite slow going.

Last 50 pages were magical

The library wanted their book back. 
dark emotional mysterious sad medium-paced

had to dnf. I see the vision and I liked Circe’s character but the writing style was just really not my fav. I made it over 80% so that’s good enough
