I grew up reading stories like the Odyssey and I thought I knew Circe but Madeline Miller expands on the character in such a way that I didn't think possible. This book was a wonderful read. I couldn't put it down. From the way that Circe describes witchcraft and her interactions with several characters of myth is just amazing.
Minor: Body horror
