5 ⭐ for how messy this is getting!! I love it. 

I think this is officially the only Hades/Persephone retelling that I need. 

Standout moments:
💙 Hades and his doggos. (I would read a whole book just on the doggies actually)
💙 <I>"Spring seemed completely different. Savage and unpredictable. It's beautiful. And it's been you all along."</i>
💖 Falling asleep on the phone together 
💛 Hera sensing what happened to Persephone 🥺
💖 Persephone and Cerberus's relationship 🥹🥹🥹
💙 That whole scene of them in Tartarus 
💙 Hades grounding Cerberus
💙 Hades mooning over Persephone's upsidedown heart shaped butt in his fogged up mirror 😂
❤️ Minthe 🥺
💜 My growing hate for Apollo
