it was amazing

This book has some of the most beautiful prose I’ve ever read. Berry did such a beautiful job creating her contrasting atmospheres of love and war—so much so that I swear I could almost feel myself being physically transported to France and Britain during the First World War. I loved the four main characters and their love stories. They were all so well developed not only as couples but as individuals and I loved how Berry took the time to make them their own people with interests and journeys that heightened them as characters and in turn their relationships, both romantic and platonic, without making their whole personality their love interest. I also loved how she included the Greek Gods and would intersperse their perspectives throughout the story. Overall this was just a beautiful book and I highly recommend and encourage everyone who is considering reading this book to go pick it up and start immediately!
