If you like greek mythology & don’t mind the content warnings, this might be for you. (ignore my review then, though)
'You care more for him in death than in life […] Kill me. It will not bring him back. He was worth ten of you. Ten! And you sent him to his death!' […] He fought to save you, and your darling reputation.
Because he could not bear to see you suffer! […] You have never deserved him. I do not know why he ever loved you. You care only for yourself! […] I hope that Hector kills you.'
'Do you think I do not hope the same?' he asks
It didn’t live up to the hype in my opinion BUT tbf I never cared - or knew much - about greek mythology, nor am I a big fan of war novels or romance, so I really am the worst possible person to review this book

Loved seeing a LGBT+ story being so well regarded. Wish I liked it more!
