A review by aurorepersy
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

4.0

I loved the fact that this rewriting managed to surprise me and bring strong emotions out of me. It is definitely an emotional read, which makes me understand why it is so popular among teenagers and young adults. Some sentences and moments have infinite poetry to them and they made me want to read more; however, in my opinion, they were too few at times and some parts of the plot fell flat. That is why my rating is more of a 3.75/5.
Special mention to the glossary which participates in having factual knowledge about Greek mythology and the events/people surrounding the Trojan War.

(This novel would make a great miniseries too. Someone get on it!)
