Ok they're 15 now so the yearning makes more sense. I'm actually really enjoying the story now.

I was really liking the development of their relationship, but now that they're off to war, I hope the book doesn't become just a series of fight scenes and battle strategizing.

So it's as swoony as described, but I don't understand it in context. The book says Patroclus is 10 years old when he meets Achilles. The sheer amount of romantic goggling over Achilles' beauty (his "supple, fawn-skin soft" throat??) doesn't make sense for a 10 year old.
