BY FATE I CONQUER, CORA REILLY

There are no words that can describe my love for By Fate I  Conquer and my gratitude to Cora who created this masterpiece. The story of Amo&Greta is touching, is beautiful, is addictive, is simply an emotional rollercoaster that leaves a mark on the soul and heart. By Fate I Conquer is definitely Cora's return to the roots with which she won the hearts of a million readers around the world. The tropes, the flow and the writing makes it so special and it is so good to read such a stunning piece of art, because that is what By Fate I Conquer is. There's angst, laugh, mafia violent scenes, conflicts, lies and secrets. There is a love that is doomed to failure like Romeo's and Juliet's tragic love, and yet it is something that the characters conquered their hearts with. I really love Amo's and Greta's love. It is not only a feeling, it is everything for them. It is the air they can breathe, the water that keeps them alive and the whole world they are to themselves. There is no Amo without Greta and no Greta without Amo. They form an inseparable whole, which even the most tragic events cannot destroy.

I also love the fact that we have two strong families headed by the cruelest and best of their kind Capos -Luca and Remo. However, it must not be forgotten that they would not have managed to gain the respect and loyalty of others if not for two strong women who always stand by their side - Aria and Serafina. Serafina in particular made my heart beat faster. She loves her children with an unconditional love and that love is shown in the book in the most precious way. It is family and loyalty that are masterfully portrayed in By Fate I Conquer. Especially the dynamics of two families makes this book more and more interesting, draws you in and does not let you put it down.

 Amo is everything I expected and so much more. After a little boy who chased his sister, and then an immature teenager who did not believe that he would ever fall in love, there is no trace left. Amo is so aware of the responsibility that lies with him, but on the other hand, he is getting to know himself anew. All thanks to the emotions that only Greta was able to arouse in him. He has to face many adversities that only make him stronger and even more sure of what he expects from life. And he expects as much or more than what his parents have shown him is possible. Although Amo makes bad decisions, they are the beginning of good ones. And that's what I loved most about Amo. He treated every mistake as a lesson from which he drew conclusions and was never able to repeat it again. He also worshipped Greta like a queen which I'm sure melt not only my heart.

Greta is one of my favorite Cora's heroines. She is a beautiful, delicate, yet altruistic and very strong girl who loves ballet and caring for injured animals. Greta knows what kind of world she lives in and what is admirable is that she is not afraid of it. Greta is like the moon, half of her heart will always love the dark. But what I love most about her is her directness. She's not afraid to say what she feels. Although, like Amo, they do not understand what love is at first, they learn the meaning of the word with each other. And this is probably the most beautiful thing, that if you find the right person, everything suddenly gains a new meaning, takes on logic and colors. Only Amo could calm the chaos in Greta's head, and only Greta could bring a genuine smile to Amo's face that overshadowed the gloom of his role in the mafia.

In conclusion, I have to repeat it again: By Fate I Conquer is EVERYTHING. This is a book that evokes so many different emotions. This is definitely a book that breaks your heart into a million pieces, but only Cora could put them all back together in the end. Every emotion that accompanied me while reading By Fate I Conquer has made and I am sure will make many readers that Amo and Greta will remain in our hearts forever.
