I haven't read a book cover to cover in months, and this one just grabbed me right from the start and made me go through all of the emotions. The main characters are so deep and everything is so well written. It also brought me back in a mythology that I had long forgotten. I highly recommend !
One of my favorite books of all times. I love to re read it, sometimes trying one of the recipes at the same time.
It took me so long to read this book, simply because I didn't want to finish it. Madeline Miller had this ability of capturing what makes people humans, even through the eyes of a goddess, and it was so wonderful to read, it makes me sad to have finished it. I hope she delights us of another book soon, as her first one, The Song of Achilles, was also a magnificent read.
It was an interesting read, and then at chapter 5 it kind of took a big hit when the author spent a very long time talking about this guy he holds a grudge against... It felt very petty and I was glad the end of the book was this close, else I may not have finished it.
(Note that I agree with his opinion, I'm just not interested in hearing about their quarrels for too long)
