The Song of Achilles by Madeline MillerMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
I read TSOA after Circe (which I absolutely loved).
I suppose, if I had read TSOA on its own, BEFORE Circe, I would have liked it more or given it a higher rating.
However, when you're fresh from the magic of Circe and you read TSOA, the first novel falls short in comparison.
By a lot.
It's basically well-written fanfiction that doesn't justify the Php 700.00 I spent on it (to think the cover was slightly damaged and the original selling price was Php 1,200.00).
Then again, the good news is that Madeline Miller got so much better with her second novel. I look forward to reading her third!
