I'd been so against reading romance until this point, but I underestimated (or failed to get the hint when reading the back cover) the depth and centrality of the relationship between Achilles and Patroclus when choosing this book at the library.Graphic: Sexual content, War, Abandonment, Animal death, Blood, Death, Homophobia, Misogyny, Murder, Violence, and Grief

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.
