Persephone the Phony, Volume 2 by Joan Holub, Suzanne Williams

4.0

If you've read my reviews on The Goddess Test by Aimee Carter, or Radiant Darkness by Emily Whitman, you would know that I am obsessed with the myth of Hades and Persephone. When I say obsessed, I mean it. One day, I saw Persephone the Phony featured in an In My Mailbox at Loving Books, and I knew I had to have it. I ordered it, and then immediately read it when I got it. I was actually surprised how small the book was! Only 130-something pages of text, and it was like triple spaced!

This was definitely meant for a younger audience, but I still enjoyed it. It was fun to take a break from the intensity of YA and just read a cute, light read. Honestly, it took me 30 minutes to read it. I really liked the characterization of Hades and Persephone, and the overall take on the myth. It was such a short book that there isn't much to say about it, except for that I really enjoyed it. If you're a mega fan of the myth of Hades and Persephone like me, this is a very cute book to read and I definitely recommend it! I give this novel 4 out of 5 stars.
