Cute and clever in its presentation in certain parts. YA isn't really my normal scene and I remembered why while reading this. Don't get me wrong, the teenagers made very realistic decisions and mental jumps for teenagers, it just frustrates me as a person in their twenties to see a teenager be dumb. I'm not too far away from it and remember it too clearly, I think.
Book was a fairly subtle retelling of Hades/Persephone even though the antagonist compares it more to Orpheus/Euridice. It falls somewhere between the two with the focus on the Orpheus stand-in Finn.
Roza's perspective is more interesting and then halfway through Sean and Petey's perspectives are added as well which makes things a little humbled but not disorganized. Decent read, easy to follow.
