I was hesitant to dive into this as I haven't read anything about Greek gods for so long I almost forgot about them... yeah that wasn't the case at all. I really LOVED it!
I am a sucker for Hades and Persephone retellings, and this one didn't disappoint! Putting them in a modern setting is a thing I wasn't expecting, but I admit I enjoyed it. The art style is beautiful and the dialogue flew nicely.
But I need more to the story... I was going to give it 3 stars till I read episode 24, my chest hurt I almost teared up! I am excited to read the next installment. ...more

I thought the book was leaning toward minimalism but that wasn't the case, and that's okay!...more
I tried really hard to enjoy this book, but it felt flat for me the whole time! The story is an important one, and I am glad that I read it, but I wishI tried really hard to enjoy this book, but it felt flat for me the whole time! The story is an important one, and I am glad that I read it, but I wish I felt for the characters and that didn't happen. I think the writing style wasn't for me. The characters felt distant even when the story had tragic moments..
I still recommend it for the important story in it!...more

The purest shock spiked in Andi’s veins. Then it melted into fury. “You,” she hissed. “Me,” Dex said with a shrug. “You’re dead,” Andi whispered. “I left you…” “Left me to die?” Dex lifted a brow.
OMG, I tried so hard with this book. The synopsis seemed so interesting and intense to me, but when I started reading the book, I felt so confused. I think my problem is the writing-style. To about 50% I was so confused and annoyed with the writing, but it got better and better after that. And the plot was so vague to me! She put a lot of information in such a small part, I wanted to know more about people and the world, I had problems with imagining the world because of the massive vague information about it. It lacks depth.
But with all these issues, I can't judge the book as a whole, I hope it is getting better in the next parts and I can get more answers to my questions. & I adore that cover!!
· Positive things about the book:"To be fair enough." 1- The world is so different for me, I found it so interesting but as I said it lacks depth, maybe that will change in the next parts. 2- I think one of the girls is alien, it had a different skin colour -blue maybe, I can't remember now!- she didn't tell much about the crew, though. 3- The book ending was good, and I feel the action will begin in the 2nd part.
Good luck with the next parts of the book, Sasha! I like your videos so much. :)
