Oh my Aphrodite, Lovely War is *chef's kiss* to me. I absolutely loved loved loved Hazel's and James' love story and adored Aubrey's and Colette's! How Aphrodite and the gods tell all of their stories is amazing and addictive and Julie Berry did an amazing job at making me fall in love with not just the characters and their stories but also with the gods! I especially loved Hades! When (SPOILER?) Aphrodite called her next witness after Apollo and for sure thought it was going to be Hermes because not only is he the messenger of the gods but he also helps brings the dead to the underworld but when I found out it was Hades, I was pleasantly surprised! (SPOILER OVER). I have to say that Aphrodite is definitely my favorite character and all the comments she made about Hazel and James, I was like "same, me too, ect." and I was definitely squealing at all the cute moments between the characters. Julie Berry did such an amazing job and I was definitely be rereading this book over and over again and, when I get my money, be buying some more of her books! 5/5, best book I have read this year so far!
