It was good. Definitely have to know your Greek/mythology history before reading, but no less a good Greek story of power and family.

I really enjoyed this book! I read it pretty quickly which says something for me. Having read Song of Achilles before, the author just has a beautiful way of taking Greek mythology and turning it into a beautiful, digestible, “fiction” book. I loved the story of Circe and it wrapped up in a beautifully happy way.
