i need to read this book

[=MYSTIQUE=]

Ok just so I’m getting this right, this book has a sad ending and may make me cry?

[arcanereads]

for those of you who haven't finished it, here what I think about it:

it was a picturesque tale that was like looking into a camera lens, because that's how vivid and flowing the descriptions were. it captured my heart, fed the flames of exhilaration until it burned and burned my poor, fragile heart into ashes. I knew how the story would end, but alas, I made the big mistake of reading it. I really really recommend it, but get ready your tissue boxes.

oh fyi, the book is in Patroclus' POV, but it remains for the rest of the book i thi..."

oh ok! ty for the spoiler tho... (dw one of my friends already unbeknowstingly spoiled it for me anyway)

[Lilly S]

Sorry for the spoiler comment I made sure to delete it

Ahh... I loved Song of Achilles when I read it. It makes the Iliad so much more approachable and it gives Achilles/Patroclus the relationship I knew they had when I read the Iliad that was not explored. tears are guaranteed. tissues are a must.

[Cindy]

I finished it AND OMFG THE PAIN I FELT. i had to lay on the floor with my eyes close to be able to process it. It was so beautiful. It made me want to read more books like this one but I'm scared that I have develop high standards now lmao

[Janhavi]

I finally finished reading it and now I am heartbroken.

[Lilly S]

Ah glad you loved it!

[Zuzanna.O]

I didn't cry neither. I very rarely cry while reading. But I can feel strong pain in my heart.
