The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
5.0
Ἀχιλλεύς
Πάτροκλος
When the exiled prince, Patroclus, has the friendship of a mischievous, good-natured, perhaps a little naive demi-god, Achilles, thrust upon him, his fate is forever sealed. Despite the many violent protest from his sea-nymph mother, Achilles holds a special place in his heart, his life, and his bed for this son of Menoetius. It’s Patroclus who unlocks the humanity within Achilles, keeping his empathy strong despite its annoying ability to overshadow one’s honor. Because of course a God’s true honor has nothing to do with humanity but remembrance. I absolutely loved this book and sobbed during the end. 1000000/10 recommend
