This is an absolutely beautiful Hades and Persephone retelling. It doesn't exactly stick to the original myth, though so if that bothers you, I wouldn't read it. I absolutely loved this book except for one thing. there is a "it was a bet" trope . That's not my cup of tea which is why its only 4 stars but if you like that then I'd highly suggest this book. I'll definitely be picking up the rest of the series. I know I liked it enough to want to do that. If you like some spice, but not a ton then I'd also suggest this book. What spice is there is wonderful.
