WARNING: THERE MIGHT BE SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW
Oh my God, they love each other so much, and so on and on, the only thing people will talk to me about this book was the romance. I drop it off my TBR, because I was not going to read a romance (nothing wrong with romance, is just not my type of genere). Let me said, what people would tell me about this book didn't make justice at all to the story. Yeah, okay, the romance was, beautiful, they were meant for each other, but that's the only thing in the Patroclus and Achilles relationship? This relationship ran deeper than the romance that bloomed between them, and that's what made this book precious to: the tragedy of each character, not only Patroclus and Achilles, most (if not all) of the characters in this book have a tragedy going after them. Which is what made this book amazing: the tragedy, the drama, that most of Greek mythology stories carries with them. I won't say that The Song of Achilles is better than Circe (Circe will always be my baby book), but it can't be denied that both books are amazing re-telling of Greek's mythologies.
