4.0

I love the series, so I enjoyed this book, but it wasn't the best installment. The pacing was kind of off, especially in the first half, and some of the big moments fell a bit flat, notably
the kiss which was very meh in my opinion. I don't particularly appreciate when these moments come from a negative emotion, and I think it's way better when it expresses the tenderness two characters feel for one another,like the scene where Persephone calls on Hades to help her sleep. This was PEAK.
I'm still excited to see what's next and will start the next book very quickly!
