Ooooh Man. Three years ago, Brii was wrong. So wrong. I did not enjoy this book at all this go around.
I can't stand Persephone. She is the actual freaking worst. She's an overgrown child; whiny and obnoxious. She ignores all the people around her and does whatever the eff she wants, always thinking she's doing it for other people when in reality she is just THE most selfish person in the world.
Her relationship with Hades is a dumpster fire. Neither of them trust each other. Neither of them talk to each other. Neither of them are actually nice to each other. They just come together once in a while, claim they're in love, fight, bone, and then don't talk for another dozen chapters.
I spent this book in a perpetual eye roll, frustrated and annoyed. This series really reads like YA with sex. Honestly, two pouting teenagers who can't stop bickering. That's Hades and Persephone. “You apologize, no YOU apologize”, on and on for an entire book.
Shout out to Hermes, as always
