Six mythology-inspired YA books for fans of Madeline Miller’s "Circe"

At the BN Teen blog, Jenny Kawecki tagged six Greek mythology-inspired YA books for fans of Madeline Miller’s Circe, including:

The Cold Is in Her Bones, by Peternelle van Arsdale

Like Circe, The Cold Is in Her Bones offers a chilling retelling of the backstory of another ostracized woman in Greek mythology: Medusa. Milla has spent her entire life within the confines of her family’s farm, a precaution against the demon that possesses girls in the nearby village. When village girl Iris comes to stay at the neighboring farm, Milla finally has a chance at friendship. But when the demon comes for Iris, Milla is determined to rescue her friend and end the possessions, even if it means learning some terrible truths about her family and the world around her.With a focus on friendship and sisterhood, The Cold Is in Her Bones is the perfect feminist follow-up to Circe.
