Love the realistic portrayal of how women are perceived in this world. I love that Patroclus grows in his opinions on women and people too. Contrasted with Achilles and his views because he can only be focused on himself.
I think maybe a bit of pacing inconsistencies at the start of the war… partly felt rushed and partly felt weeded out a bit.
More character distinction would’ve been good, but I’m being really picky now.
The last chapter is amazing. Many tears fell. Amazing book and fleshed out story of a classic myth.
I feel the 1984 pull to the book now. Beautiful and I loved it. I cried a lot in my final sitting of the read.
