I thought it might be a nice idea to have a place where we could introduce ourselves! Obviously I'm Jessica, and if you've made it here via a method other than my YouTube readalong, welcome! I am a public librarian living and working in Canada, and I am OBSESSED with Madeline Miller. So happy this re-read is finally happening for me!

Candace Hoping to join along! I’m Beaconhillbooks on YouTube :) so excited this’ll be my first read of this novel!

Eric (ericmaki) | 4 comments I'm Eric, and I read The Song of Achilles last year on Jessica's recommendation. I am not 100% sure I'll do a full re-read, but I've put a copy on hold at the library to at least follow along and refresh myself.

Jessica (sunnyfeathers) | 1 comments I’m Jess. Call me Mally, just to avoid any confusion. I haven’t read this book yet, even though it had sat on my shelf for ages. I have two feral rescue cats. This is not my main goodreads account, I had to start a new one this year because my old one glitched like crazy and stopped recording books I read. I’m Rainyfeathers (on my other Goodreads and Instagram). Though I pretty bad at this whole social media stuff.

Shaun (sturnerstuff) | 3 comments My name is Shaun (On The Stoop on BookTube) from northern England. This will be my first Madeline Miller, though I have had it on my Kindle for years. Candace (Beacon Hill Books) pointed out this read along to me and I thought it was time to get this ticked off my TBR and hopefully enjoy some conversations with other readers about it along the way.

Varsha Ravi (theopticsofnarrative) | 1 comments Hi All :)

I'm joining in rather late as well as I was finishing up on some other books I was reading. I read Circe when it came out and really enjoyed it so I'm really looking forward to reading The Song of Achilles and seeing what I think of this as well.

My name is Varsha, and I don't have a booktube channel. But I do have a bookstagram channel and blog. (https://www.instagram.com/between.boo...)
