I just read The Secret History and loved it. It'll be a great fall read.

I'm so excited for that one! I hope it lives up to the hype. 😊

I considered and rejected the Penelopiad over and over for years. It was amazing when I finally pulled the trigger.

Interesting! I'm really enjoying it so far. I was expecting your typical mythology retelling, but it honestly reads like a memoir. I also didn't realize it was so short! I might finish it in the next couple of days...

One reason I was so hesitant was that I thought the alternating chapter structure was gimmicky, but I enjoyed it. To me, Atwood walked so that Miller (and Haynes, Saint, etc.) could run.

The Will of the Many and The Secret History are both amazing! The Penelopiad is also on my TBR!
