I really love this series, and every book ends on a cliffhanger. I couldn't imagine reading it live and having to wait weeks/months for the next book to come out because each cliffhanger just keeps getting bigger and bigger! But I swear I never saw this one coming and have no clue how we will savage their relationship; plus, what will happen to Hades?!

This is the darkest book of the series yet. Chase is a straight up sociopathic psychopath, to have so little empathy for your fellow humans is disgusting, I’d be curious to understand Tate’s source material for his character. I love that the guys have become closer in this group with the sole purpose of protecting Hades and making her happy. I would have loved to hear the lecture Zed gave Seph.

Loved this as much as every other Hades book! After that ending I have nothing but hope left in me that things aren’t the way they seem to be. I am as excited as scared to read the final book of the Hades series!

„I'm scared that I'll lose my best friend. He's my safe place. He's the only person who has always had my back, no matter what. I can't lose that. I'm terrified that without him, I'll lose myself. Even in my darkest days, he held onto my sanity—my humanity—for me, safeguarding it until I'd done what needed doing, then put it back where it belonged.“

„I want you to see that no matter what happened in the past, I'm in this with you one hundred percent. I wasn't there when you needed me then, but I'm here now. I'm not going anywhere, and I'll do whatever it takes to fix what he broke inside you.“

Questo libro è più incentrato su Zed come interesse amoroso, rispetto a Lucas e Cass, che purtroppo trovo il personaggio meno affascinante tra i tre. Questo ha influito sicuramente sul gradimento complessivo dell'opera, soprattutto inizialmente. Sono stata felice però felice di scoprire che

Cass fosse ancora vivo, visto che è il mio personaggio preferito

Dopo che la relazione tra Hades e Zed finalmente

progredisce e cominciano a scopare e comunicare meglio tra loro due

l'opera mi ha preso maggiormente, anche perché la cosa è più o meno coincisa con maggior coinvolgimento anche degli altri interessi amorosi.

Il finale non mi è dispiaciuto anche se per sbaglio me lo ero già spoilerato, e ora non mi resta che domandarmi come la scrittrice riuscirà a redimere

Zed

.

Devo inoltre aggiungere che vorrei spesso strozzare la sorella di Hades, soprattutto dopo la sua conversazione con

Lucas, dopo che quest'ultimo è stato attaccato
