Well, I read all three books, hoping the writing would improve. The story is constantly interrupted by whatever sex scene can be whipped up next. It seemed like the author used the Karma Sutra page by page to come up with something. I'm not opposed to sex and romance. It's just all of it was so repetitive, overdone, laughable. Roll-your-eyes boring after a short while. It forces you to start skimming. Literally, nothing got done within the storyline due to the constant sex scene interruptions and no exaggeration that it happened every other page. Very poor and disappointing, choppy writing.

The ending was extremely intense, I loved Persephone’s personal growth and even Hades and Persephone’s growth in their relationship and learning to trust eachother through many hardships.
I loved that we got to see the Olympian’s more as a whole in this book as wel.
Can’t wait for book 4!

Probably my favorite of the series so far. Lots of spicy scenes, but mostly just loved how the story progressed and the growth we saw in Persephone. So excited for Game of Gods!!
