The Goddess and the Hawk by Chiara Gala

4.25

thank you to the author for sending me an ARC of this book!

this book was an absolute rollercoaster of feelings and moments, the characters are all so interesting and the plot kept me hooked the entire way through. i loved the mix of old and new, as well as learning about all the different characters lives and they they dealt with the issues they were facing. the divine energy, slow burn romance, and femininity in this book all play key roles, and are all explored incredibly. the spicy scenes were so fun to read, and i’m obsessed with a certain man’s piercing 👀. the representation in this book was incredible: polyamory, diverse characters, bisexuality, talk of grief and child loss and more (can’t remember of the top of my head 🫠). i would make sure to check tw before reading as it does deal with some heavier themes. the setting was absolutely beautiful, and it was an incredible fantasy book with found family and plenty of secrets
