A decent quick read, but mostly left me wanting more from the world building. Neither the plot nor the romance was particularly inspired, but the idea was clever. Also,
Zeus’ death was pretty anticlimactic. I hoped for more politics at the end but he just pushes him out a window?
But I did like Persephone a lot, so worth the read!

This book starts with sex real fast. The sex drives the plot for the first 2/3 of the book. Be prepared for that. The plot doesn’t truly kick in until later in the book. Once it does, it gets pretty good.

I liked this book because it was enjoyable, but that is about all the reason I have. The plot isn't great. Not sure if it just wasn't planned out well enough or if the pace was too fast, but there are definitely plot holes. If you like spicy books this is a good option, but the plot is lacking. 

I will say I liked the Greek gods twist.

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.
