Infinite stars. This is my new favorite book. I don't have the words to do it justice!
Lyra is an amazing FMC and obviously Hades is so swoon-worthy that I was eating up every scene with him in it.
But what I loved most about this book was the crucible game. The concept was done so well and I want to read everything Abigail Owen has written now. The action was amazing and I'm not usually an action girlie! And I didn't mind that the romance was super subtle because everything else was so unique and entertaining.
I think this would be a good read for anyone looking to branch into the fantasy genre and has a particular interest in Greek gods and goddesses. I found the world building easy to understand and everything was explained so well.
I am so excited for the next book! I will be dropping everything to read it when it comes out.
