I realize most people probably aren't reading this book for the plot and character development but I found Hades in this to be the much more interesting and fleshed out character over Persephone. Persephone felt really under-developed as a character.  I couldn't understand Persephone's desire to have sex with Hades as it really seemed to come out of left field.  I get she agreed to it as a way to prevent her from marrying
Zeus
but her very quick pivot to "please have sex with me I want you" was quite abrupt.  This is definitely not the worst Hades and Persephone retelling I've ever read.
