I quite enjoyed this book. An Apollo/Hyacinth book is something I've been waiting for, for a long time and this did scratch that itch.
The prose was good, the plot was explained well, and I really loved all the relationships in the book - be it the romance between Apollo and Hyacinth, the brother-sister one between Apollo and Temi, the friendship between Temi and Epiphany or the familial relationships.
In some places the book did feel a little lacking, the emotional hits didn't land as well as they should have, but they could easily be looked over.
4/5 to this book, I am very eagerly waiting for the sequel.
