Ok, by this time, if you are not familiar with Madeline Miller's debut novel, The Song of Achilles, you clearly have not been reading this blog. We are certainly fans, as are Library Journal and PW who gave it starred reviews, and a few other people you might be familiar with. Well now everyone can become a fan because it goes on sale Tuesday, March 6th!
Click through for a list of events that Madeline Miller will be doing, and if she is near you I strongly suggest going because she is so lovely and incredibly interesting and smart and will be very happy to see you!
