Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

I really didn’t like this. Mean girls with fantasy elements. The best parts are the action scenes but those were few. To much high school preppy themes. I bet the gifs of the scenes will be dope, but I’m not watching the show.
A Touch of Darkness by Scarlett St. Clair

I was really excited for this and enjoyed it a lot in the beginning. However, that didn’t continue as I read more.
Few things:
Persephone is not written well. She’s immature and constantly and irrationally doubting everyone and their actions. I get it, this is part of Kore as she realizes the world isn’t bad, but it took so long for her to stop being toxic about it. She just kept hurting Hades and it bothered me alot.
The “we hate eachother and argue then have sex right after” theme was horrible. That’s extremely toxic. That’s not love, yet it’s pushed that it is.
They don’t get along. Hades loves her, and puts up with everything, but there’s so much arguing and him getting yelled at no matter what he does, and it’s just so uncomfortable to read.
Maybe I’m just biased because Hades is the God I actually worship, and I felt this version of Persephone was just a nasty little b*tch that wanted to keep acting like a brat, and she constantly got her way. That’s not Persephone at all. She would never be this toxic towards Hades.
Also, HE IS NOT THE GOD OF THE DEAD!!

Chainsaw Man, Vol. 1 by Tatsuki Fujimoto

Really let down by this. It’s just Jujutsu Kaisen with a pervert as a main character. Plot is already bland. It seems to take a lot from Jujutsu, but made it really really boring. Making the character a pervert doesn’t add humor, it just makes him annoying.
