Circe by Madeline Miller

5.0

Oh dang, this was really good! I've been seeing it get high ratings for awhile and it had been recommended to me by a few different folks whose book opinions I generally respect. So I finally gave it a whirl, and was not disappointed! I don't know how, but the writing is somehow both soothing and thrilling. I know next-to-nothing about Greek mythology, but spent a ton of time reading up on the characters portrayed in this book because I found this so fascinating. I still know next-to-nothing, but it's less nothing than I knew before!
