A review by janagaton
Lovely War by Julie Berry

5.0

The fact that this is narrated by Greek Gods is such a unique and beautiful quality of this book. It adds a charm to the story like nothing I've read before. It's so clever of Julie Berry to make the love scenes narrated by Aphrodite, the war scenes by Ares, the death scenes by Hades, etc. I loved the dual romance, the friendships, the short chapters, the witty banter among the gods, and the fact that the history part of it being historical fiction didn't feel like recycled material. I need more books like this one in my life. I was never a historical fiction gal until Lovely War. Julie Berry produces beautiful writing, and I'm making it my mission to read all her books.
