I guess for me, I've enjoyed "Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter". It's better than it sounds actually.

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller.
I've always struggled with "The Classics", but this is a wonderful re-telling of The Iliad. It's in a modern idiom, but manages (I feel) to retain the atmosphere of the original superbly. |

And no, I haven't seen it, only the cinema trailer. I was laughing so hard that I had tears running down my face. That did not impress the girl I was with. |
