At least, that’s who she is in the first half of the book. Here is a different kind of strong female character, and I very much respected her mind and her ability to make a life for herself out of a situation she would have changed if given the chance. However, I found her strength as a character far overshadowed, at least in the first half of the novel, by that of her sister, Phedré. ![]() Her responses and reactions were realistic for a girl her age, but I kept wanting to shake her.

However, there was some magic imbued into Miller’s work, some fierce beauty behind the pain, that wasn’t present in this novel. It will definitely appeal to the same audience that loved Madeline Miller’s Circe. ![]() Jennifer Saint penned a lovely, if depressing, novel in Ariadne. ![]()

Goering, our teacher, was of German descent (I had never heard of that other Goering, and so could not find the situation ironic), but with the exception of Mr. ![]() I grew up on the plains of Kansas and had no knowledge at all with any foreign language until I took beginning German in high school.
