I didn’t like this one as much as the first book because of all the reasons everyone else is saying: Persephone. She was insufferable for a lot of the book and kept making stupid decision after stupid decision.

But … I do try to remember that she is SO NEW to the world. She was kept trapped and hidden from everyone until she was 18 years old. She makes childish decisions because she’s learning. She’s like a child being released to the world. She also never had a great mother figure in her life (clearly).

DNF at 81%.
Persephone hat mich zum Ende hin so aufgeregt, ich konnte es nicht zu Ende lesen. Ständig ist jemand anderes schuld für den Müll den sie verzapft, und Hades muss es aufräumen. Wenn er dann seine Beweggründe dafür, wie er aufräumt erklärt, ist sie wieder sauer auf ihn.
Davon abgesehen ist der Schreibstil nach wie vor sehr anstrengend, und kaum flüssig.
Ich bin leider ziemlich enttäuscht.
