This honestly caught me by surprise, usually mafia books just don't do it for me. But this one was good.

I appreciated the inclusion of misophonia, as someone who has it, you hardly ever see it represented in real life, let alone in books.

Full of spice and I love it. A great retelling of Hades and Persephone with a twist.
