A review by mementomorivv
Icarus by K. Ancrum

5.0

I had signed up for a giveaway of a review copy, and while I got this book for free. The second I was done reading, I made sure my preorder was set through my favorite bookstore.

I was already in love with Ancrum's writing style after reading The Weight of the Stars and sobbing the whole last quarter of it. I didn't cry with this book but it still hit me just as hard.

A teen art thief falling in love with the son of the man he's stealing from? Sign me up, I support his crimes. If I tried to write down all the quotes I loved from this book, I'd end up just copying and pasting the whole thing. Icarus and his love for his friends throughout the story was beautiful, a scene that got me was him being asked if it was okay to hug him after a stressful time.

I'm looking forward to rereading and annotating more already.
