Quick review so I can get right to the next one 🏃🏼‍♀🏃🏼‍♀🏃🏼‍♀

I love, love, love Helen, Patroclus and Achilles' relationship in this — it's tender, it's years in the making, it's brand new, it's achingly sweet and so fucking hot at times and I devoured all the scenes of them just together.

The plot was interesting enough but I have to say the reactions to who became Ares in the end didn't really make sense for me in the context of the book — it just felt really iffy?? Idk. But let's be real, none of us are here for the plot, okay.

I'm excited to see what's next in the Dark Olympus universe (maybe a bit more plot actually?) and the developments with the 13 are so fun!! I love drama 😈

(Also: have a really toxic and unhealthy crush on Perseus. Send help. Or a book about him)

Overall really enjoyed this and the set up for future books at the end, loved the story and characters, but the series is starting to feel a bit formulaic to me. Anyways, still want to read the next one!
