Not quite as great as the first one but I still loved it! There's a lot of angst and drama and let's just say, I'm glad I've already bought the next part because otherwise I'd be dying. 

We see a lot more of the supporting characters, especially Lexa & Apollo, in this sequel and their stories were each really well developed and helped further Persephone's own story (sue me, yes, I still have hopes for Apollo). I struggled a bit with the details of Lexa's story and would've loved some more exploration of the Drama™ that led to it, at times it felt like there was just drama for the sake of it, y'know?

I still love Hades & Persephone and I hope the teasers of their darker sides we got in this book get explored more 👀
