i love this book! it’s way more romance oriented than books i usually read but i still love it! i love how the gods are written, and just the whole books plot/idea. the romance is so sweet and the ending is so bittersweet. this book will probably make you cry. but it’s worth it. i love this books’ combination of historical fiction, romance, and mythology.
