If you want a read that's entertaining, trashy and has a lot of spice this is great lol. I know my rating is kind of low but I don't think this book was as good as the first even with all of its good qualities. I had given the previous book a 3.25, and had summed it up to the fact that I did not like how the voice actor read certain aspects of the book; but now I think I am not liking how Persephone is written.

This entire book she acted sooo dumb and I was frustrated with most her actions, Hades is not without blame but oml she was being bratty and annoying instead of communicating like an adult. I also think there was a lot going on in this book, and not in a fun plot twist way. I feel like some parts were thrown in there like with her stalker and then the way Lexa eventually died; even though her soul was broken I didn't think it fit her character to fake getting better or to commit suicide. One thing I love about a book is character development so I was excited about the idea of Apollo getting better, but it felt a bit odd how accepting she was of him after what happened with her friend... Also, if this author doesn't stop using the word flesh and engorged I am gonna cry, I find myself saying ew out loud a lot.

  Another big pet peeve of mine in audio books is word pronunciation and idk if I am right or they are right but some names like Leuce and Alastor were pronounced differently between this book and the hades book, also the word magi; its silly but it bothers me if I notice. However, I will continue to read because I am still entertained and I hate leaving a series unfinished so I really hope it gets better!
