oliviaferlito 's review for:

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
5.0
adventurous challenging emotional hopeful reflective sad tense medium-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Can’t remember the last time I reviewed a book with five stars. This was the most beautiful, gripping love story. I went in without any inclination as to how the story would end -l never studied much Greek mythology. This made the story even more surprising and compelling. Fell in love with the protagonist and admired how he held the world and spoke of the human heart. Beautifully, beautifully done.
