A Touch of Ruin by Scarlett St. Clair

slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

3.0

I can’t stand Persephone. I’m only giving this three stars because of the other great characters. Persephone is so whiny and I cannot understand how Hades, an ancient god, can put up with her.

I love some good steam but it was weird how Hades and Persephone had so many issues in their relationship during this book but instead of trying to resolve them, they just kept having sex. Like??? That’s not fixing anything. 

That being said I’ll probably still read book 3 🤷🏼‍♀️
