The book destroyed me 
I literally cried the thru the last 100pages. But I loved it. The writing, the scenery everything. And even if Achill fucked me up sometimes I kind of love him just like patroklos.

Beautiful romance I found it hopeful ! Highly recc reading the Will to change by bell hooks before reading this book to understand the mentality of masculine pride.
