I have a hard time not finishing series that I start, but I am on the struggle bus with this one. I don't get why there are two separate series that are supposed to be read together, and have portions of duplicate content. Like it's really weird to be reading parts of the same book twice. And also, we get it. They are just insatiably horny all the time, and Hades is just broody, and Persephone is immature and unaware from being sheltered her whole life...it's just kind of getting old. Honestly, Hermes is saving the series for me at this point. He is by far my favorite character.
