An incredibly beautifully written book with one of my favorite romantic tropes, starcrossed love. This is my first by K. Ancrum, but I’ve been wanting to read her previous books for the longest time. I highly recommend Icarus, and I without a doubt will finally be checking out this author’s other books! Highly recommend you add this to your TBR if it is already on it.

A work of art in and of itself, weaving love, grief, hurt, anger, and friendship into a beautiful tale about hope

This book is a work of art. It is heart wrenching and beautiful and I loved every second of it. It is incredibly well written. This is everything. Even though it’s YA, me being 28 did not deter me from reading this.

A fun read for fans of art, mythology, and heists! The relationship between Icarus and Helios was wonderful, and I loved all the representation. I also appreciated the depth and complexities of the various family situations, particularly Icarus and Angus and their wide communication gap. Stuart is terrible, full stop. All in all I really enjoyed it! I would recommend that my library get a copy when it's published.

Thank you to Netgalley and HarperCollins Children's Books and HarperTeen for providing a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

Quick read with a lot of heart, great representation, and fun art references, but was expecting more lyrical language and a faster pace based on the author's previous work.
