Yes!!!! I felt that same way! It definitely picks up! I still quote “What did Hector ever do to me” to my brother!

And yes - I found the style was super different/more complex and did have a slow start like TSoA but I still really enjoyed it just as much!

I definitely thought it was a slow start but couldn’t put it down once it picked up!! I cried so much at the end - so beautiful and tragic!

I read Circe immediately after and I ended up purchasing both since I enjoyed it so much.

I just got her Galatea book as well!

Can’t wait for you read Circe!
