The Atlas #0.5

Sacred Hospitality

Rate this book
Hospitium (Greek: ξενία, xenia, προξενία) is the ancient art of hospitality, defined as the sacred right of the guest and the divine duty of the host. For example, it would be indecent for the guest to set fire to the curtains of the host, or for the host to poison the meal of the guest.
Not that anyone abides by ancient traditions.

i know everyone here is gushing over nicolibby—completely justified, by the way—but can we please all take a minute to appreciate the few nicogideon crumbs we were given…

He and Max observed Nico's sleeping form in silence, watching as he flung one arm over his head and into what remained of the tres leches cake.
"He’s so cute when he sleeps" remarked Gideon fondly.


are you kidding me?! i would do anything for them <3

A snippet of each character before they were brought to the Society, at times revealing some bits and pieces but really, only serving up more questions.

Of course, it will come as no surprise that the standout stars are Nico, LIbby and their friends - their antagonism here was made fun and light of, and it was an entertaining look-see. Each scene with these two literally made me laugh out loud, something that was sorely missing in the main book. Having read this, it definitely makes me look forward to reading The Atlas Paradox even more!

(update: I won't be sharing the link as the site itself is gone, sorry :/)

i read this as a sort of prequel to understand the characters before i picked up atlas six and that was the sweetest. thing. ever.

olivie blake is a magician because her writing is craazyyy good and her ability to make it so atmospheric?? the apartment vibes were 10/10 but anyway this was a comforting short read and it just makes me even more excited to read the series

might not read atlas six for awhile though because the second book comes out years away and i wouldn't want to wait that long, but we'll see!

nicolibby and parisa served.

⠀⠀⠀ also, parisa, break my heart too, please.

Sacred Hospitality is a short story in The Atlas Six trilogy. It includes some very short scenes of the six main characters, especially focusing on Libby and Nico. I really love the dynamic of these two, so reading their banter is always a fun reading experience. My biggest surprise with this short story was Callum’s scene, since it shows that is more to him and the complexity of his feelings than there seemed to be in the first book.

I don't know what I was expecting, but this wasn't it!

Nico and Libby were adorably at each other's throats, claws extended, like always.

Callum was bored and manipulative, but this time because he was asked to be so. Mostly.

Parisa was bored and self-centered and almost cruelly honest.

Reina... Was she even in it? Oh yeah. Yes she was.

Tristan was...observant and yet, careless? Or was it uncaring?

It was an okay read. But honestly, I could've done without it. I laughed once or twice at Nico-Libby antics but that was it.

Dünyanın en saçma şeyi bile olsa Libby Nico olduğu sürece benden yüksek puan alır.. Gerçekten ben bu çiftin köpeğiyim ya ne güzel didişip kavga ediyorlar allahım 😭✌️ Parisa yine kraliçe gibi maşallah. Kısa hikâye tarzı bi şeyler yazmış. Neden yazmış bilmiyorum açıkçası ama afiyetle yedim kdkdjd okumazsanız bi şey kaybetmezsiniz ama Libby Nico aşkından geberdiğim için okumanız da gerekiyor tşkler 💅
