Electric Idol is the second book in the Dark Olympus series which is a modern retelling of Greek mythology. This book follows Psyche who is targeted by Aphrodite after a perceived slight at a ball. When Aphrodite's killer and son Eros propose they get married to keep her safe, truths start to unravel.
I really loved this book so much. Katee Robert has such an addicting writing style that makes her books so quick and easy to read through. I love that she includes so much diversity in her works and it's clear that she loves and cares about her characters and story.
I thought that Psyche was so interesting to read from. She is a plus size social media influencer and her thought process and how sweet she was is so relatable and a breath of fresh air. I really liked how her and Eros balanced each other out in this book as they come from not only two different walks of life but also difference perspectives on people nad their motivations.
I really love how slow biurn the plot is in these books and how it works to set up the other books going forward as well.
I would say if you are interested in reading this book series, definitely give it a try. I really love it and am excited to continue on with the next ones.
