A Game of Retribution by Scarlett St. Clair

2.0

This book is the tiniest of tiny fractions better than a touch of ruin, and only because Hades story of going through Heras trials was slightly more interesting than following Persephone through her very boring whiny life. 

This book followed a touch of ruin much closer than the prior two books and so a ton of this book was just a copy and paste which, is something I really really hate in a second POV addition to a series. 

Hades and Persephone have the worst relationship. It's toxic, pathetic, and aggravating. I don't understand how two people fall in love when they spend zero time together other than having sex and fighting about how shitty they each are. I was honestly exhausted from reading them fight and argue by the first third of the book, and it continued to the bloody end. 

These books are YA with (a ton) of sex, and that just doesn't work for me.
