There is so much emotion in this book; at it's core, it's about Icarus learning to let people in and lean on them when he needs help. His and Helios' relationship is raw and emotional and definitely one of the strongest aspects of the books. But so are the friendships that Icarus makes with Luca and Celestina. Icarus goes through it in this book, and shows that it is okay to be vulnerable at times.
If you like Greek mythology inspired books, I'd definitely recommend checking this one out!

I loved the story. I'm sad with the note it ended on, because I dreamed of a happy ending and the result was definitely more bittersweet. The love story and the thievery were fantastic. I'm in awe of how K. Ancrum can take broken kids that society would deem as "lost causes" and turn them into redeemable, relatable characters that you can't help but love. I anticipate more of the stories K. Ancrum tells.
