I loved the mythology infused with a classic love story set during WW1! I laughed and cried throughout the novel, flying through this story to see how things ended. Such a beautiful, moving story of love, loss, sacrifice, and prejudice!
The characters came to life and I loved following their journeys! I don’t have many words for this one, it was just…perfect 🩷
