See allThis book is my "The Book". It's amazingly written and I've seriously suffered losses from its characters. Achilles and Patroclus' love story was so beautiful and poetic, it definitely enhanced the idea of this book being a retelling of an epic. It was very hard not to get lost in those pages, but at the same time, I had to stop myself from binge-reading it, so I could enjoy this masterpiece for longer. There is literally nothing wrong I can say about it, it is truly the most stunning book I've ever read and my absolute favourite.
And the writing itself! It was so delicious to read! "He is half of my soul, as the poets say." I love Madeline Miller! I cannot thank her enough for this amazing book!
