Niente da fare, sono scritti malissimo.
Col primo ho voluto far finta di nulla e dirmi “dai che magari con la pratica migliora e si assicura di avere un bravo editor che le corregga i ventimila refusi ed errori”. Ed invece no.
Ora, a parte i refusi che oddio okay ci possono stare, ma dire “conscious” invece di “conscience”? Mmhhhkay.
Tanti davvero tanti errori.
Poi vabbè, non commento il modo in cui i personaggi sono caratterizzati (o meglio, non caratterizzati) perché vabbè ciaone.
Tutti i personaggi sono piatti e unidimensionali, certi personaggi secondari sono chiaramente buttati lì solo per valorizzare Persephone. Ma anche Hades è praticamente un contorno.
Nel secondo libro poi praticamente fanno sesso ogni due righe invece di parlare dei loro ingenti problemi di coppia (oltre che individuali).
Potrei commentare tante tante altre cose, ma chiudiamola qui.

Was this a master piece?
Probably not.
Did it absolutely, completely consume me?
Yes, definitely yes.
I'm obsessed.
