I do want to read Circe at some point, but I’ve been meaning to read the author’s first book as well!! The Mars Room sounds interesting – I need to look into that.

I wouldn’t have thought I’d be interested in Circe but you saying potential book hangover has me wanting to give it a try. I’ve put it on hold at my library. I’m on the hunt for wow books and if the happen to be outside my comfort zone that might be even better. Greek mythology is definitely out there but it sounds like it was well worth it. So glad you had a fun family visit, I agree with your grandson…no more snow!

In reply to JoAnn @ Lakeside Musing. That's so nice to hear because I've actually never read Julian Barnes before.

In reply to Beth F. I didn't read Achilles, but may go back and do so now since Circe was such a hit for me.

In reply to Ann Marie. I'll review Circe next week, but I can tell you that I don't consider mythology my thing either, and yet I loved Circe.

In reply to Allison. Allison, I finished Circe and loved it. One of my very top reads this year.

In reply to Tanya Patrice. I've actually never read Julian Barnes, so thought it was time to give him a try.

In reply to hillary. I really can't recommend Circe highly enough. Loved it!
