Galatea by Madeline Miller
4.0
dark emotional sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Loveable characters: Complicated

In this, a reimagining of Ovid’s Pygmalion through the eyes of “the woman”, we’re presented with a tale of female empowerment and reclaiming control. 

Galatea is a quiet force who demonstrates the sacrifice so many women make in protecting each other from the ugliness of misogyny.
