I honestly liked this one more than the first one! I felt more of a connection to the characters. I was connected to them in the first book but with this one it’s even more.
I love how we got to see both positive and negative sides to each character, and exactly the depths of Zoey’s powers. I also absolutely loved Aphrodite in this book! Even though she was crazy mean in the first book and quite a bit in the second, her true self shined through as she helped zoey and her friends. I hope she gets some redemption in the next books.
I didn’t like the recap in this book. It seems like the way the author recapped the first book was so repetitive. So many small details were said multiple times that it felt dumb and annoying. I really hope the next book there isn’t any recap, if we want to remember what happened in the previous book, just reread if.
