Circe By: Madeline Miller

A novel of the life of the Titan witch, Circe, told in the style that I can only describe as a soap opera.  Despite it's population of Gods (both Titan and Olympian), this is written as a delicious tale of petty jealousies, back stabbing, family feuds, finding oneself and redemption.  It's a lot like a soap opera in all those aspects.  Chock full of mythology, familiar characters and stories are beautifully interwoven to present the life of Circe.  This is for anyone who likes mythology, and really exceptional story telling!
