Right well I can discern that Madeline Miller is just not for me.
I dont know how she always manages to make the most intricate stories become so bland and unlikeable.
I wanted to like Circe as a character, fuck, I think I actually DO in the original greek mythos but I couldn't give more of a fuck about her in this. She's so bland and annoying and everything here feels so forced and fake.
I just do NOT like this.

Okay another Madeline Miller book.
Unlike TSOA, I am not familiar with the story of Circe and so I am sure that I will be less able to tell where the predictable end is going to lead and the ways the author tries to shove the tragedy of it down my throat. Let's hope she's learned from that mistake and fails to do it regardless.
I hate the feeling of being forced to feel. I know how to feel, just make it happen.
