i was able to finish it in about a week, i found it really easy to read and digest, though it was a learning curve figuring out the pronunciations of names!
i found the book interesting and likeable, but i was disappointed to find that it wasn't nearly as emotional or shell-shocking as everyone made it seem to be. i didn't find myself very attached to any of the characters besides patroclus, i wish the book had a bit more reflection and emotionality.
i did love the character deidameia even though she was only in a few pages, the way she was written was so expressive and cartoon-like, it really stuck out to me and made me wish she was a more important character. i loved how she was like a doll or child, she was probably one of the few characters that actually made me feel emotion.
overall, as someone that doesn't read fantasy or have any knowledge on greek mythology - i enjoyed the book and found myself interested in whatever was going to happen next, but the book did not meet my expectations (which i... expected, lol).
