Hades was honestly the only thing that pulled this up to 2.25 stars.
Very predictable because it was so similar to the first/second books (which I loved) but I was hoping for the story to have moved on a bit.
Persephone was incredibly repetitive and where I found her quirky previously it was veering towards unlikeable for me this time around.
TW: I also found it incredibly distasteful with the sex scene right after her BEST FRIEND committed suicide?!

Great read, even though I really think I prefer Hades' pov. The character of Persephone is often hard to like as she can really be a brat but then towards the end you notice a growth that's strongly appreciated! And Hecate is really amazing, I really hope she'll befriend Lexa's soul at some point because they really would make a great match .
