this book is like the song of achilles but with a woman as the lead character, so obviously it was even better. Circe is kinda just like me

honestly, wasn't that interested or familiar with circe's story, but madeline miller's writing was beautiful enough to keep me captivated throughout the book !

⭐4.5

I liked this book a lot. I don't know a lot about Greek mythology, so it was really interesting to read about different gods, events, monsters and places.
I have read this book for such a long time now (I think I started before summer). I'm gonna miss it a lot.
