    Great review video 🎉 i agree with everything, This book is just everything for me, i completed it within 2 to 3 days, because i couldn't do anything, it's so immersive, i was so invested, that ending line is so satisfying, knowing that they'll be together forever in underworld

    I cried a lot. Like i was constantly crying last three chapters. I somehow found myself in patroculus. I don't know why, maybe cause i also lost my Achilles. Whenever i go to last pages i cry. Even after years i may cry.

    I borrowed it from my friend and currently half way through it...the book is kinda emotional at the points ngl and i know the rest of the book will be emotional too 😭 but one thing of sure the book is so descriptive i can literally imagine the scenes of their life in mind so easily XD

  • @bookwarts-readingbeginsath2953

    I started listening to it as an audiobook, then lost the track, stopped and decided that I want to have the reading experience. The writing style is beautiful ♥️It's to die for. As much as I have read it, it's enchanting.

    I had started reading it some time back but the names & the background seemed so confusing I DNF it. Then a few days back I had this huge urge of re reading it again so this time I borrowed Iliad from my sister 😭😂 & currently reading that so I am able to enjoy this book more.
    Thanks Anchal for giving me the enthu to actually finish Iliad ASAP & start with this gem of a book finally 🥺

    I don't know what to say..firstly you did a great job with annotating the book, it looks so good! & secondly the way you share your view it just makes it feel very relatable, I kinda read to know why you reacted the way you reacted ...But, I just finished reading the Shiva trilogy and I cried, because thats not how I thought it would end .. I knew what happens with sati.. but I was expecting the emergence of parvati..or something else to happen Idk.. so keeping in mind the impact of that book.. I might not read The song of Achillies now.. maybe by the end of this year ..
