I bought Neon Gods because of my 2 year long obsession with the Greek myth of Hades and Persephone, and it did not disappoint! 
I absolutely loved Neon Gods and I thought it did do justice to the original myth. This book was really fast paced which I actually enjoyed because it meant I was more addicted and obsessed with the book. 
This is going to sound really weird : but I really appreciated how Zeus was wrote as a creep. Zeus was always a s£x offender and I loved how “Neon Gods” addressed that. 
My only fault would be that I would want more content when Hades and Persephone ended up together or a sequel. 
Even though I know the next book in the Dark Olympus series is a retelling of Eros and Physche I still really want to read it!
