I loved Romeo and Juliet plus the forbidden love trope. I don't read much dual point of views because it sometimes ruin the suspense when not written intricately, but I would give this a try.

Thank you so much for the review!

Mythology, romance, and politics in one narrative? This is a book worth reading. I'd love to see how the author blended these aspects together.

Wow! This is the first time I'm reading about Celtic history, I'm intrigued by the tribes and always wanted to know more about them. The review is very detailed and precise, only a reader who truly loved the book can write a review so emphatic. It seems like it has a lot of characters to keep one entertained till the end. I'd have trouble keeping up but since it is ancient mythology, I'd endure. I really would love to explore Celtic's lives

Although historical fantasy is not my genre, I would like to see what happens with Catrin and Marcellus. Will they be epic undying love and will it hold. These books normally have touch violence for me, therefore I would skip it.

When you have to choose between love and duty, it is always an impossible affair. Catrin gradually becomes a woman of many faces, and it seems she is heading the impossible.

The book is worthy of good attention, for it is skillfully and carefully written. Likewise, the review is skillfully and written. I see the smart work. Kudos. Great book, great review!

Historical fantasy has never been my kind of genre. But the storyline of this book sounds great. The fact that this book features strong women is great as well. Thank you for a wonderful review.

A historical fiction set in the 24 AD! And, there are also magical elements in the story. It is the kind of book I've never read before and would like to read soon.

I wish that I was well-versed in Greek mythology so that I can understand what's going on in this story. Congrats to the author for having the BOTD.
