BYL Reading Challenge discussion

This can be any mythology from any culture. Some recommendations:

Circe - Madeline Miller (Greek)
Trail of Lightning - Rebecca Roanhorse (Navajo)
The Way Back - Gavriel Savit (Jewish)
Elatsoe - Darcie Little Badger (Lipan Apache)
The Twelve - Cindy Lin (Chinese)

I thought of Jitterbug Perfume by Tom Robbins, which has characters from Greek mythology.

I loved Circe and Song of Achilles so much. I need to find a book as good as those for this.

Ariadne by Jennifer Saint sounds excellent (May 4th release)

Trail of Lightning sounds good.

I'm hoping to read Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky by Kwame Mbalia with my daughter but if she's not interested in it as a read aloud I'll probably still go for it.

Moonchild Voyage of the lost and found by Aisha Busby - based on the 1001 Arabian Nights

I read Elostsoe for this prompt and thoroughly enjoyed it!

We ended up listening to the audio book together and really enjoyed it!

Using the book club pick A Thousand Ships for this one. :)

I read Lovely War by Julie Berry.
