    Book Review: Circe by Madeline Miller

    by Joli June 18, 2020
    by Joli June 18, 2020

    Before I begin, I think it’s important to note that I opened Circe having almost zero prior knowledge about mythology. Despite majoring in English in college, I never had to read mythology. Crazy huh? The Summary In the house of …

    Review: Gillian Flynn’s Crime Thriller Trilogy

    by Cathy March 25, 2020
