Review of 'Circe' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

5/5

What an amazing read filled with such beautiful prose. I loved every second of the book and the journey that Madeline was able to capture on page made for one of the best books I’ve read in a while.

Circe has made a lot of mistakes on her life but also a lot of good at the same time. She had always followed her own path regardless of who she was born to and who she was with. I loved to see all her successes and failures, her strengths and her faults. It felt very real despite being about a goddess with supernatural abilities. I really loved how she was captured and how the retelling of her story really made her seem so human.

This was a beautiful book and I am glad to have read it. Definitely one of my favorites!
