I was not sure how to rate this book. I absolutely love Miller's writing style and I think that it was a good book but in the middle I was also like "do I want to dnf it?". It was so slow. I also was not interested in neither Achilles nor Patroclus. I did not resonate with them. I really enjoyed many of the side characters on the other hand. Chiron and Briseis were my favourites. The ending was sad and heartbreaking but also beautiful in my opinion. I think I need to read this one again to get my thoughts and feelings for this book in order.
