    Summary

    In truth, as the days went by, Mildred thought of her husband less and less and of Father Pruitt more and more. It wasn’t that she didn’t love George, she was just becoming increasingly aware that maybe she didn’t love him in the right way - not the way she was beginning to fall in love with John.

    Summary

    Achilles, the sun casting its last rays around his head like a halo, resplendent and aureate.

    Achilles, the soles of his feet flashing pink as he sprints across the beach.

    Achilles, slender fingers plucking the strings of his lyre, eyes green like fresh pressed olives. His cat's smile.

    "Guess what I'm thinking about," he says.

    The robin that flew over our heads but a minute past. The dream he had last night of a ship with purple sails, its prow slicing the waves of the Aegean sea. The wooden amulet that hangs about the augur's neck. This and this and this.

    "I'll be the first hero to be happy," he would tell me years later. "You're the reason."

     

    A collection of all the scenes we didn't get to see in The Song of Achilles. Follows the timeline of the book.

    Summary

    “Good and evil… man and woman; ice and fire… black and white, death and life. Life has never been one thing or the other, Lady Brienne. Life is a hopeless smudge of gray. But to the White Walkers—they have no grace for everything that falls in between."
