I really enjoyed Hades POV. Made Persephone a little better. Hecate and Hermes are my faves. They’re witty and funny and awesome. I do feel like Hades is a bit of a cornball and sometimes thinks of nothing but sex but overall enjoyable

Just a note: it's hard for me to separate the triggering events in this book from those in "A Touch of Darkness," as I read them back to back. I may have listed some content warnings that are more applicable to "A Touch of Darkness" than to this book from Hades' POV, so I'm sorry if this is the case! Most of the important events are the same, however, so I think that most warnings from "A Touch of Darkness" would make this list nonetheless.
