I am torn between my opinion of this book so I'll have to review it in 2 parts.
First one, the not so good one, is the romance element. Wrath seems to be the thing that occupies Emilia's thoughts all the time, yet it doesn't feel like their relationship progresses much further throughout the book, other than the last chapter itself. Also, not much happens, just Emilia thinking a lot.
The second part of the book is the setting in Hell with different demons and creatures living there and Emelia learning the intricacies of Wrath's court. If there had been more of that, I'd have liked this book more.
I am intrigued by the things we find out at the end and will read the next book to find out how it ends.
