Mary This book is so good that I finished it so fast. I study ancient greek and Latin in my high school (because I'm Italian) and this is not perfectly accurate BUT it's still a fantastic read and the writing style is so poetic. Aaah I love it. I'm going to buy Circe and Galatea !!!


Loana I'm an English major and wrote a paper on it comparing it to the Iliad and loved it!! Seriously such a good book, one of my faves i've read in uni.


Thea Le I stayed up way too late at night reading this only to lose more sleep crying over the ending.
Every so often, I read it again and again. I do not think I will ever get bored of this book. It is my favourite to date and my only regret is not having read it sooner.


Thea Le I read Circe first and was recommended The Song of Achilles afterward. There is one line that refers to The Song of Achilles in Circe book which hit me so much harder after reading it again.


Laura It's one of my fav, crying at the end.


Yağmur Arda Alkan ı cried non stop for the last 50 pages.

OMG same! My friend and me were reading it at the same time and when she said she never cried at all in the entire book I'm like what is wrong with you!?

Aga I love this book! One of my favorite. The details there are amazing, you can see that the author put a lot of time in this book. I convince my best friend to read this and I quote: ,,I regret not having read it earlier". I will torture her with this forever

Lena‘s_Library I was alredy so intrigued from the first page. This Book gave me so much happiness, sadness, and love. Just a great work!
