Circe by Madeline Miller
5.0
Really enjoyed this one. Not usually into what I perceive to be mythology retellings and I really loved Circe. Writing is so beautiful in this and I love how flawed Circe is and the journey we get to take with her throughout her infinite life. I had dismissively thought “what on earth am I gunna find relatable about a Greek enchantress” before finally deciding to read this book, and she became so human through Millers storytelling. A good friend recommended this to me and I’m so glad I listened to them! Will probably revisit some passages again next year because the writing is just so lovely.
