How neat!!!! Those are my favorite genres. I wonder if each month will show that I always lean toward those.

The tender love story between Achilles and Patroclus was inspiring and lovely. At times, I found myself thinking these things really happened, as if it was written as historical fiction. Did Thetis, Apollo, and Artemis really involve themselves in everyday lives? Then, my conscious mind returned to reality. I completely forgot that they were characters of Homer. That is powerful writing.
Ms. Miller, hurry and get better.

Her writing is exquisite.

AmyG I adore her writing. Sadly she has serious long covid so I don‘t know when we will get another book. 😞 4w
Butterfinger @AmyG that breaks my heart. I was getting ready to Google. I have already read Circe. 4w
AmyG She wrote an article about her journey with long covid and yes, it‘s heartbreaking. I am sure you can find it on google, if you want. 4w
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @AmyG I just read it… so sad 😞 4w
AmyG @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks She is so talented. I am not sure how much she can even write. (edited) 4w

I have not been on Litsy in a few years. But, I am post spinal surgery so what should I do, but read and return to the community that I adored, adored me, and then I abandoned. I just found myself at a place where I couldn't read. I'm going to have to thank Fourth Wing and ACOTAR for the past few months.

My next read - The Song of Achilles.

TheBookHippie Oh helllo!!!!! We have missed you!!!! ♥️ 1mo
Texreader Oh you poor thing and how absolutely wonderful to see you! I say poor thing because I‘ve had spinal surgery and yea, not pleasant. I hope you‘re doing ok!! Your brainchild, #foodandlit, is stronger than ever!! 1mo
Butterfinger That makes my heart so happy. @Texreader not only about #foodandlit, but you remember me. Thank you @TheBookHippie I can't wait to get back into children's classics. 1mo

Beautifully written. It's my 2nd from this author, amd while I didn't love it as much as Circe, it was still a great read! This was my July #Doublespin. @TheAromaofBooks
