説明

Born amidst divine grandeur, Circe feels an alienation that sets her apart from her illustrious lineage as the daughter of Helios, the sun god. Unlike her siblings, who embrace their godly powers, she grapples with the gifts and curses that come with her unique abilities as a witch. As she navigates the complexities of her existence in a world dominated by gods and mortals, Circe discovers her own identity amidst the whispers of power and the shadows of her family.

Isolated on the island of Aiaia, Circe's journey unfolds as she dives deeper into the art of transformation—both of herself and those who cross her path. Here, solitude and introspection become her closest companions, enabling her to harness her magical prowess while confronting the loneliness that stems from a life of exile. With each choice she makes, Circe faces the repercussions of her actions, revealing an internal struggle between her desire for connection and her need for autonomy.

As fate brings legendary figures into her life—heroes who seek glory and revenge, gods who wield their influence, and mortals whose lives intertwine with her own—Circe learns that power can be both a weapon and a shield. Throughout her tale, she emerges not just as a figure of myth but as a fierce embodiment of resilience and self-discovery, challenging the boundaries of gender and control while shaping her destiny on her own terms.

My local library did a “blind date with a book” through February, where the books were wrapped with a quote and genre written on the wrapping. This is not a book I would typically choose for myself but I do love Green mythology so was excited to read it. It that’s your thing, it’s a pretty interesting read!

I don't really understand anything. The thing resonated to me a lot is how powerful people abuse their power

I really wanted to say that I loved this book but halfway through, I found it a drag to finish. It seemed repetitive, bitty and a chore.
