What should we read in January?

[Lucy Tonks, Shadowhunter - Head of BOTM]

The theme for January is mythology! Comment what book suggestions you have below.

I loved the book magnus chase, which is based on norse mythology. I know a lot of people will be suggesting PJO but most will have read it so it won’t be as good to branch out and read something new.

[Amelie]

I suggest Lovely War. It’s a beautifully written historical fiction romance novel, that’s narrated by various Greek gods.

I love the Riordan books, but everyone's kinda read them, huh...

I'll nominate American Gods instead then. Only most people have read that, not everyone :P

[Bumble]

I think I saw a book about hades and persephone that someone was reading but I can’t remember the name. does anyone know what it’s called?

ooh! idea! we could read the bear and the nightingale! i’m not sure if it counts as mythology but it’s based on russian folklore. it’s less well known than the rick riordan books but looks really good!

i wanna read lore too, but sadly, even tho it comes at the beginning of january, for some people it may be hard to get a copy in time for the botm.

oh i realised i haven't suggested a book yet! i'll suggest wicked fox since it has korean mythology

I haven't read it, but I've heard The Song Of Achilles is good! It is an adult book tho I think, so might not be appropriate for everyone.
