2.5 stars. I felt a little underwhelmed with this book. I didn't dislike it. The writing style was good and the second half got more interesting; however, it took the author a long time to get to the point. Also, at over 300 pages, I didn't think too much happened! I will give the second one a try since I was interested for the second half of the book...
enjoyable. I didn't know much about it going into it. I needed a book that had the word "under" in it, and the second book in this series fills that, so that's why I read this one.
This was one of those "stay up till you finish it" books and so I obliged myself and stayed up entirely too late to finish it.
I absolutely loved the book and the style it was written and I have already reserved book two at the library!

If any author could have made John, a sort-of-Hades, kind of guy H.O.T. that would be Meg! I loved the plot in this book!

For the majority of the book it was quite slow than near the end it finally picked up and got very interesting. I liked the greek mythology in it.
I did like this book but it felt a bit disjointed to me which made it hard to keep focused on the story
This was a good book! Nothing spectacular, but I didn't hate it. I didn't fiercely love the MC, Pierce. She cried a lot and tried to come off as a strong lead, but with John always saving her, it was a tough go. I did like, however, that she had other things to concentrate on other than the love interest. Her family was involved (which i always love) and she was making friends (I guess), but didn't put all her time and energy into thinking about John.
John also came off as possessive and controlling, but I didn't absolutely despise him.
I liked Cabot's inspiration as well! It was a cute little Isla that would have been fun to explore more of!
The flashbacks in the story were a nice break from the present times in the book and were well placed!!
Overall, it was a fun read!

Wow, I really enjoyed this book. It was nice to read a shallow love story where the undying love is just unrealistic. No matter how much people may hate Twilight for doing this, books like this at least leave you feeling optimistic.
Abandon really filled that role. It had no morals to be learned, no driving plot, it simply had two characters that had very cute interaction that give the reader a little stomach flutter.
Books like this may seem pointless, but I am a firm believer that they play an important role in literature. Its nice to not always be sad, or preached at, or told about how bad life can be. That's why I give this book 4 stars. For being a fun ride that leaves me wanting more, nothing more nothing less.

I really enjoyed this book, yes at times the writing is repetitive, but as a whole it is a very interesting story. I find the parallel of Hades and Persephone to be very well done.
