I enjoyed this book and I really loved that it was written from Patroclus's point of view. It was a bit slow for me when I first started but picked up at the end. I also love how Madeline Miller writes and the wording she uses really brings the characters to life.

I enjoyed this book and I am glad I picked it up. I think the ending was a bit predictable but wasn't bad. Overall the message was good.

I read this book in one sitting, the overall plot is pretty good and the twist ending made me sob. Thinking about all the little things the author slipped in throughout the book really makes the ending hit harder when you realize everything. Overall I think it was a good book and would recommend!

I really loved this book and honestly think it was one of the better written books in the series if not the best written (falling only second to ACOMAF). I loved the character development with Nesta and also loved the fact that Cassian had his chance to shine and was able to see more from his perspective. There were a few parts in the book that really frustrated me but overall I really enjoyed it, hence the 4.75 rating. Also holy smut, SJM does not hold back in this one!
