The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
3.0

Gah, the very, very end of this made me weepy. I MAYBE (?) liked Circe more than this one (love a good mother’s POV), but this was also a good retelling of a Greek story, the lore of which I really only know from the film “Troy” with Brad Pitt, let’s be real. I didn’t expect to like this OR Circe (as I’m really not incredibly interested in Greek mythology), HOWEVER, they both surprised me and I’d recommend it.
