I absolutely love how kind Eros is and explains Persephone's situation to her. His tenderness towards the situation makes what happened to him even more heartbreaking.

That ending 🙊 Finally!!

I feel like my enjoyment of this just keeps increasing! 

Seeing more of Hermes and Eros was probably my favorite of this one. 

Its good that we will get to see Persephone work through her trauma and that the first person to learn of it was so supportive of her. We had a gap between volume 1 and two where it was only slightly addressed.  Eros is a sweetie that's for sure! I'm enjoying the dark topics with some healthy approached repped in the graphic novel.  

Fatesbook is also playing a larger role now which is awesome, it's gonna add some DRAMA! And the art is so perfect for that kind of thing. Rachel is a master of expression. 

I only have one more physical volume on my shelf, but I really wish I had more since I'm not keen to sign up for a webtoon account. I own the first four illumicrate editions so I  hope they continue the series publication! I'd love for a full shelf of these bad boys.

In this installment, Persephone begins her internship in the Underworld. Hades is trying to keep Persephone at arms length and focus on his relationship with Minthe. Meanwhile, Minthe is unse the bad influence of her friend Theta and Persephoneis admitting to herself and her friends that she has feelings for Hades and maybe is not meant to be an Eternal Maiden after all.

💋💋💋💋💋 Five out of five chef’s kisses!


Once again, the way that Lore Olympus discusses trauma is tender, reverent, and honest. Can’t recommend this series enough.

Love this series. This volume came together really well, it has beautiful, vibrant art and a nice pace to the story with lots of emotional moments. 

I love Artemis and I have a pet theory that she’s suffering from a crush on Persephone. That whole sequence where Persephone was needling her about “never having a crush on anyone ever in the whole history of time” and Artemis’s expression…. I ship it!

(I mean. Obviously I ship Hades and Persephone, as why would I be reading this if I didn’t. But. Ya know. Artemis having an unrequited crush would be cute and make a lot of sense for her character - especially with her hatred of Hades.)
