As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller is definitely and adult book. There are a few highly romantic scenes. What I appreciate is that it's all nuanced but still you know what is happening. One of my high school students read it on his own and liked it. So I would say perfect for public library and private reading but not for high school libraries. Having said that, it is a good book and well written and follows the Achilles myth very well. It is good literature geared more for adults. The audiobook is also very good.
