A Game of Retribution by Scarlett St. Clair
2.0

I do enjoy the plot and characters, and obviously I love Persephone and Hades, but reading this series is starting to feel like I'm reading such incomplete stories. The storylines that are included in Hades' POV are way more interesting than in Persephone's, but I wish they were expanded on a little more. Sometimes parts of the story that would've been super interesting to explore get glossed over and it leaves me wanting a little more in terms of drama. As far at the smut, I don't mind it but it definitely is almost comical the way that something super tragic or dramatic will happen, and then they are immediately going at it. You literally cannot help but laugh at times.

***also, if you read a Touch of Ruin and thought Persephone was being annoying...it's even worse in this book when you see what Hades was dealing with in his free time lmaooooo. let me know if u agree
