This book is so sad; prepare to be devastated. If you're familiar with the myth of Achilles, then you won't be going in completely blind, but Madeline Miller brings life to these heroes from myth in a way I haven't seen before. She makes them so human, and it's honestly bittersweet, heartbreaking, and hard to watch all at once.

I loved Circe too, and I hope to see lots more work from Madeline Miller in the future.
