    I read this for one of my university courses but it was surprisingly not nearly as boring as I thought it would be. Very interesting to study the beginnings of fiction, story-telling and world literary tradition.

    Beyond that I definitely believe someone needs to do a retelling of this where Gilgamesh and Enkidou fall desperately in love because it would absolutely slap.

    The AUDACITY of men. If I saw Gwidion or whatever his name is I would absolutely be punching him in the face.

    Before starting

    These have been the craziest couple of weeks of my life. I'm very happy to be back to reading but I need something light and fast paced for a bit so I'm going to be starting this one! Very excited :D
