The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

2.0

I wasn't too in love with this book, but I must say, I'm definitely in love with the writing style. As an aspiring writer, sometimes paying more attention to the writing style helps me figure out what works for me and what doesn't. I think the parts where Patroclus is thinking about Achilles are the most pleasing stylistically. Some parts remind me a lot of Sappho's poetry or Shakespeare's tragedies.
