Smut was smutting, loved everything about it.

Story itself? It was annoying about the relationship between Grayson and Vanessa. i am glad it got a HFN kinda situation. 

In the end though, I came for the smut and got the smut lol

urban high fantasy a taste of true crime. Lol

I didnt think I'd like book 1 when I kept hearing book 3 wasn't good at all. I've read ACOTAR and TOG so I knew what I was getting into.

This book brought a different set of feelings I wasn't ready to face. Writing style was good, though it was actually hard getting through the first 100 pages. (I was warned about it but kinda, sorta not really believed it)

A lot different from the world of ToG and ACOTAR

not that it mattered, but I did do a "toes curl" watch with my book club, it was about 6 times. I also did a "cawk" watch because SJM hasn't ever use the word in her previous works so it was fun to do that too. So "cawk watch" was 8 times.

The ending was really sweet and I loved it. But the in between felt very long (on certain parts), also felt scenes weren't needed.

I also think the fight was a bit anti-climatic.

They killed off Apollo, and I was so devastated. The shock value was Zeus actually dying, and I wasn't prepared for that lol.

I hope we get a few novellas/short stories. These I request:

Thanatos x Lexa
Apollo x his lover(s)
Hermes
Aphrodite x Hephaestus
Sybil x Harmonia
Zophie(?) x Elias

I didn't realize I was getting into a very very VERY slow burn book with little to no spice. i felt I was just reading a YA book, not an adult book as it states. I also didn't know it was a fantasy story as well lol. I assumed it was modern/contemporary, though I'm not mad at it.

I wouldn't consider a romance book because there was little to none of any hint of romance. Was there tension? Very little, but it wasn't tension of "I have to have you now" or "I hate this person so much, I need to fuck them"

Reason why I felt it was a YA book because of how small emotions the characters were feeling, as if they were learning what they were feeling.

I don't mind miscommunication tropes, though it has to be done in a way it felt like it was needed. This one wasn't needed.

I'm giving this a higher rating because remaining 20 minutes did get me good, to where I now HAVE to read the 2nd book. I just need to know what happens that's really it lol.

 I honestly hate myself to say that I enjoyed this book more in the entire series.

The character development? Great. The story? Overall good. The SPICINESS?! Phenomenal.

I can also appreciate how dommy mommy Nesta was towards Cassian. The need for them both to compete with each other (sexually obviously)

I'm intrigued where Elain where go from this. And you know what, I hope she doesn't end up with Azriel. It's too cliche, and I'd like to see her in her own skin with no one for a bit.

also it must be sooo nice to be revived from the dead over and over again.

 I felt the story took wayy took long, and random romance scenes that felt unnecessary. I get love triangles, though to have another one with the same brothers is kinda gross? Why is it always them to?

Was it just me that it was weird the characters are suppose to be in high school, but that act like their adults? It felt off and would probably make more sense if they were in their early 20s or barely got out of high school at least.

The cliffhanger got me, so maybe I'll read book 2 but it's definitely not a "MUST READ" type of situation.
