Do you know all the words to the Hercules movie? Have you become obsessed with any of the following: Hadestown, Lore Olympus, Kaos, or desperately need to know where all of Wonder Woman's villains come from? Then this is the book club for you! Over 12 months, we will explore 12 different retellings of various Greek myths and stories, very casually compare them to each other and the originals, probably play Smash or Pass with the entire pantheon and end the year with a Greek Festival, period-inspired costumes encouraged! So whether you are a Megara, a Circe, a Eurydice, a Helen or a Hestia (first and last born!) you are sure to enjoy this riveting and risqué book club!
