Circe she gets to flex her knowledge of mythology more imo. She is a very talented author, but Circe’s story is more interesting to me because instead of focusing on mostly Achilles and Patroclus, we get much more interactions with gods, demigods, and other nymphs. We also get some of the Minoan myths, Skylla, and Odysseus and Telegonos.

I read Circe first and I liked both, but Circe stuck with me more. SOA is a bit more of a love story / bromance.
