a good second part to divine rivals. a little cheesy/predictable but a good story especially if you’re looking for an easy, low brain power read.

I enjoyed this but there were elements that seemed to come out of nowhere and I'd have liked more detail there.

Perfect end to this Duology. The last 150 pages had me locked in and stressed.
Also Rebecca, how dare you kill Prindle 😭. Iris finding her and Forest’s bodies intertwined broke me


I loved learning more about the world/Gods and thought the way they were represented as characters to be super well done and intriguing. Unfortunately though, this book does suffer from one of my least favorite plot devices ever.
The romantic couple gets together but then one loses their memory
. It’s just a personal preference but I’m just not a fan of that and it did bring the rating down for me unfortunately. 

Overall a great read and I will miss Roman and Iris dearly 🥹

Enjoyment: 4/5
Writing: 3.5/5
Plot Structure: 2.75/5

Overall: 3.5/5

I feel that the plot was a little rushed, and it would have been nice to flesh out some of the characters a little more. I found them very unlikeable sometimes. Overall, it was fun but not my favourite.

A great conclusion to a wonderful duology! This book had a little less typing and more action and plot than the first book, so the vibes are slightly different, but I still enjoyed it. Maybe could’ve had a tiny bit more character development between the main characters and their families and friends, but that would’ve been icing on an already good book. 

I’m all for a cute romance and that was there for sure, but I did also really enjoy the added background for the gods and goddesses. Though this inclusion did push our main character from minor bystanders of the war into major players, which some may not like, but I was alright with.

My biggest fault with this book was that it didn’t hit as good as the first one for me, but like, it’s still the Ryan Locte to divine rivals Michael Phelps. I.E. still great. Overall, great series and a new favorite!
