I wanted it love this book. The plot was very interesting but the authors writing style was not for me. It was choppy at times or very drawn out. The chapters are very, very long which made the story seem more drawn out then it was. Persephone was a very interesting character and her development with her cousins was interesting. Her and the librarian seem kind of forced. It had an interesting curse and way of breaking it but overall decent.
