A review by _meganrose
Galatea by Madeline Miller

dark emotional mysterious sad fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes

4.25

4.25 ⭐️ This was haunting and brilliant. Gave me the chills. Such a fan of Madeline Miller’s writing and her retellings. Better than a 4 star read but as it is a short story, I couldn’t quite give it 5 stars.
