I thought the first book in this series was bad but fun, but the fun isn't as present in this sequel. While I have no issues with the darker themes and events, the focus on the emotional turmoil of the characters is too obvious. The word "trauma" is used too much and the characters have too many soliloquies about their pain.

It also veered hard into the "woman are so magic and special and men don't have these special vagina powers" as well as "all men are evil even though our two goddesses are controlling a lot of them" which sucks.
