📖Neon Gods by Katee Robert📖

✨Book Review✨

A Modern Greek Mythology Spicy Retelling about Hades and Persephone.

That is all the synopsis you need to know because I want you to read it. This story may not be everyone’s cup of tea but I devoured every moment of it. It was oh so sexy and spicy and the romance was so perfect in my eyes. I would have rate it higher but somehow the details was blurred. I felt like it became contemporary at some point and I was looking for mythological references. But nonetheless, I love it.

If you like:
• Spicy - the level is 5/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️
• Romance
• Fantasy
• Mythology/Conetemporary
• Political/Power Grabbing
• Betrayal

This might be the story you might be looking for. This is romance/spicy heavy plot — in my eyes. 🌶️☺️🥰 PS I have read Stone Heart as well. But this one NG>SH spice level.

Wow 😏 I’m not usually into super spicy books but I thought this one had a good level, where it focused more heavily on the plot but still added quite a bit of 🔥 in the last 2/3’s. I wasn’t too keen on the fact that it was a very modernized retelling but I loved the concept as a whole. I loved Hermes as a side character!! And otherwise, yeah there were flaws and cliches, but I don’t think that’s what most of us were paying attention  to… 
Anyway yeah I’ll read anything Hades and Persephone even if I know it’ll be a bit out of my comfort zone. And in this case, going out of my comfort zone was rewarded!

This story is a dark and emotional retelling of Greek mythology with a strong focus on romance and erotica, set in a fast-paced, adventurous world. I really enjoyed this Hades and Persephone retelling.

I love a reimagining of Greek Mythology. This one took away their god statuses but kept them at the most powerful 13, in the city of Olympus. I love portrayals of Hades like this where he is the bad guy in everyone’s story until Persephone shows up.
