The penultimate book in the Hades X Persephone series and the war is starting to unfold. This book not only has Hades perspective, but also Dionysius and Thesus. While jarring at first, it made the story that much richer.
In both this book and the fifth one (Persephone's perspective of these events), the spice felt overdone. It was as often as five pages apart. And while both of the main characters know that sex doesn't solve problems caused by miscommunication, they constantly use it as a band-aid.
Overall, this installment was amazing and I am excited to see how the series ends.
