After barely reading anything last year, I’ve somehow had the best reading year of my life so far. Song of Achilles and Piranesi back to back has genuinely broken my brain.
Already have Circe by Madeline Miller on my list — but what else would you recommend if these two are your favourites? Looking for that same transportive, emotionally devastating feeling. Any genre welcome. 🙏

Wolf Hall. If you liked Piranesi, Wolf Hall will not throw you. It starts out oddly because you are in the main character’s head. Like Piranesi – you just have to give yourself over to it and then you’ll be in the world of the book for the ride.

Wow I hated these two books. I also hated The Time Traveler’s Wife so maybe you’d like that one, too.
I’m confident that you’ll love *Martyr!* by Kaveh Akbar
