What's everyone's favourite/must read Greek Retellings?
I've read a few (YA mostly) like Song of Achilles, both of Bea Fitzgeralds, and I'm currently reading Circe.
PS: my name is Ismene (from Oedipus) which idk I just think is really cool😅

I have read Ithaca by Claire North and quite liked it, even though I sometimes found the _feminist_ part of the retelling a tiiiiny bit heavy-handed. If you’re willing to go into it with curiosity, though, I think you would enjoy it. It’s not a part of greek mythology that’s covered very often, as opposed to, for example, the Iliad.
The King Must Die by Mary Renault.
I wouldn’t call it “must-read,” but _Ariadne_ by Jennifer Saint was good!
