Easily one of the best books I've ever read. Beyond the stunning prose, which captures both the mythical retelling and the deeply personal story, the perspective on the myth of Achilles and his relationship with Patroclus is in equal parts deeply beautiful and joyous and devastatingly tragic.

I don't say this often but I can't wait to read this one again.

A sweet, interesting, well-told and unique sci-fi romance! I'll admit it took me a minute to wrap my head around the storytelling but I got there and it was well worth it.

A Court of Thorns and Roses

By

Sarah J. Maas

What a fun read! Although this started off a little slow, the author's beautiful and sometimes brutal blend of prose created a lush and immersive world and crescendoed to a wholly satisfying ending that left me excited to continue the series.

Carry On

4.5 stars - I really appreciated the thoughtful blend of magic, action and romance! Although the story took a little while to get going, once things were rolling there was a lot to really enjoy! Looking forward to starting the sequel and continuing my adventure with Simon and Baz!
