After finishing this title, I just sobbed. The Song of Achilles is so sad but so beautiful. I went into this one completely blind - I didn't read the blurb on Goodreads, I just knew I had to read it after the book had been recommended to me so many times. Miller, the author, can write. This is the second book of hers that I have read this year (both received five-star ratings) and she has earned herself a spot on my "instant-read" authors list. If you enjoy literature inspired by Greek mythology, you NEED to check out her work. I cannot think of any author that writes in this genre as well as Miller does. Pick up this book and a box of tissues to accompany it immediately.
