I felt as though Persephone was always trying to retaliate against Hades and that part kinda got old. I was entirely shocked with the whole Lexa situation that was something else. I didnā€™t like Mr janitor guy from the beginning and didnā€™t know where his character was going. Iā€™m still not the biggest fan of Luice though like when Antoni was like once a traitor always a traitor I was on edge from that point forward.

very mild spoilers.ā€¦

holy shit persephone was so fucking aggravating for 60% of this book and it really took me out. miss girl was really out here getting mad at hades for not caring about what she was going through when she refused to tell him what she was going through!!! make that make sense!!!!!! ALSO the way persephone treated lexa while she was in the hospital (( pre-meeting w apollo,,,donā€™t even get me STARTED on that)) was giving terrible friend vibes. i know if any of my best friends were in the hospital like she was i would have never left to begin w. maybe just mAybe thatā€™s me projecting but ĀÆ\_(惄)_/ĀÆ

on to the stuff i liked:

even tho persephone was a PAIN IN THE ASS for the majority of the book she did have some growth so good for her. and mr. god of the underworld and dead and rich and xyz yadda yadda yadda HADESā€¦this manā€¦oh my godā€¦he slays both literally and in my heart

in conclusion: ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø.75-ā­ļøā­ļøā­ļøā­ļø/5
