The Struggle by Jennifer L. Armentrout
5.0
“For what the gods have feared has come to pass. The end of the old is here and the beginning of the new has been ushered in. For the sun child and the new god will give birth to a new era and the great creators will fall one by one, reshaping our homes and hearths, reaping man and mortal alike.”
“Love means you’re gong to be there for each other even when it sucks. Love means you’re going to have each other’s back and trust the other person will be there for you.”
The Struggle picks up where The Power left off. So, Seth has become the God Killer and afraid that he’s going to end up hurting Josie he leaves. We find almost immediately that there is a prophecy and that Seth isWe also find out exactly what the repercussions of killing a Titan are because the ground cracks open right in the spot where Atlas was killed and scorched daimons begin climbing out of Tartarus. And all of this happens in the first 2 chapters! Let’s just say that this book is fast paced and you should prepare yourself for a rollercoaster ride.
I absolutely love the character development in this book, especially since Seth really comes into his own. He finally realizes that he has made some bad, and frankly stupid, decisions and what the consequences of some those decisions are. He also owns up to the mistakes that he’s made and he starts making smarter decisions. His reaction to learning a certain piece of information is just the reaction that you want for him to have, and it is everything! His relationship with Josie keeps growing and evolving and it’s such a wonderful thing to see. Speaking of Josie, that poor girl goes through hell in this book. Some of the things that she has to go through are horrific and inevitably causes her to have nightmares. But Josie wouldn’t be the awesome character that she is if she didn’t end up coming out of it stronger than before. Her love for Seth and her faith in him is incredible and even though his actions have hurt her she still fights for him and for their love. She knows what she wants and what she’s willing to accept and I love that about her.
I also loved seeing the Army of Awesome back together. Deacon, Luke, Aiden, and Alex are characters that I have loved since the Covenant series and getting to see them in this series is always fun.
This is such a fast paced and packed book that I didn’t want to put it down. I loved every second of reading it and i’m excited to read the last book in this series.
“Loving him didn’t mean I wasn’t disappointed in his choices - that those choices hadn’t hurt me. Loving him didn’t mean he could keep making those choices and I would keep forgiving him. Loving him meant that I knew from the first moment that I fell for Seth that he was complicated - that loving him wouldn’t be easy. Loving him…well, it meant that I was willing to fight for him.”
“There was always something about the way he kissed me. Like it was the first and last time. There was no hurry, no rush. If he’d never said he loved me, this kiss told me he did.”
