Neon Gods 💀🌸🌉

When Persephone’s mom, Demeter, springs a surprise engagement to Zeus on her, all Persephone can think of is one thing: to run as fast as she can away from Olympus.

Before she even has a solid plan, she is forced to cross the River Styx and into the Lower City where Hades is supposed to govern but to her he doesn’t actually exist … until he saves her.

Hades has been hiding in the shadows planning his revenge on Zeus and just waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike. When one fateful night, his plan finally begins to take action as Persephone crosses the river and into his arms.

Together, they come up with a plan that benefits both: take down Zeus and gain freedom from Olympus once and for all

Overall, I liked the book but I didn’t fully love it. It definitely missed some things that could have been explained. The scenes were spicy but they definitely could have been longer and spicier considering the dark books I’ve read in the past. I would go into this book as a palate cleanser from reading a heavier book.
