My first Madeline Miller book & I couldn’t get enough of Circe’s centuries long life story. I’m usually not a big romance reader but this one’s special and heartbreaking but somehow still ends up joyful? Not to say it isn’t packed with action or dark themes. No slow parts or fillers. I’m already trying to get my hands on The Song of Achilles.
