I have just started reading this book. But it already has a tight grip on my heart. Maybe I'm particularly fragile right now, but so often women are barely real people in media but these women?? these women feel real, like me or like someone who's looked into my mind, is holding my soul. Mythology was always cool but so violently male centered that it burned but this is mythology from the other side and it's so real.

Just as I’d finally begun to harden in my certainty that I simply hate Winter and always will, this book warmed me up again.

This book destroyed me. It's a reinterpretation of the myth of Circe, one of the OG witches in Greek mythology who was exiled to an island for eternity. She's a minor character in the Odyssey, but is given the lead role in this. Unbelievably poignant writing about life and death. Sobbed at the ending - it's a beautiful book.

It's so lawless. You’ll see the weirdest things and no one will care. People are so unabashedly human here. Dead expressions, exhaustion, boredom. You’ll get a coffee, someone else will get a bloody mary, the time is irrelevant. Your priorities will be tested, everything costs at least three times as much as it should, it won’t matter. I love liminal spaces.
