This book was honestly a miss for me. I feel really bad about it because I thought I was gonna like it. It’s very spicy which some scenes I did like but the overall characters I found annoying and the plot wasn’t great.

There is also content that would likely be triggering for those with eating disorders/body image issues in this book.

4.0

I was surprised how much I liked this. The world building was good, but the focus was the romance. It wasn’t quite the smut filled book I was led to believe, but there was plenty of smut. Some of it is during public “parties.” I would call this lighthearted because, while the content wasn’t cheerful, the book didn’t bring me down. I didn’t think it was dark.

I didn't hate it but also didn't love it. Hermes is definitely a winner. The world building was confusing like there's references clearly implying this is our world with social media, phones and Cheetos but where is Olympus? What is Olympus? I guess I just needed focus on what this book is actually about :p
