A retelling of a classic Greek mythology story involving Achilles and Patroclus.
It was a slow start for me. I was truly thrown by the narration being from Patroclus's POV, however after about 30% of the book passed I adjusted and really emerged myself. I enjoy mythology and this was an angle I never expected. Nothing in this book shocked me, however, I was still ripped in two by the end.
Beautiful, heartbreaking and tragic. Bring your tissues to this one!
