It is time. Time for me to give up YA books that have anything to do with the paranormal. They’re not working for me. But let me tell you why this one specifically failed to make me want to finish it. I got seventy five pages in and NOTHING HAPPENED. Oh sure, there was a lengthy recap of the previou...
This series, for me, has been an exercise in indifference. I was indifferent to the first book, Abandon, and had I not borrowed the second one from the library at the same time I borrowed the first one I probably wouldn’t have read it. After reading Underworld I figured I had already come this far a...
Earlier in this Persephone/Hades myth based trilogy, John (Hades) and Peirce (Persephone) made a decision that has imbalanced the forces ruling the underworld. Having finally (mostly) worked out their relationship, Peirce is suddenly faced with the possibility of losing John because of this imbalanc...

Pierce spent this series much like in the previous books frustrating me, but at the same time made me love her more. I mean she’s a teenager, she is going to b...
Actual rating: 1.5"You couldn’t go back to your mom's house and hide under the covers when you had a baby, pretending you couldn’t hear its cries. That big, fat, demanding baby was your responsibility now. You had to take care of it, for as long as it needed you, even when it wasn’t being cute and g...
I have to start by saying that yes, I am a bit biased toward this series. (And not because of the fact that Meg Cabot is a FLAWLESS human being who can do no wrong.*) I am a fan of the Hades/Persephone myth. When I was younger, and reading the myths for the first time, I don’t know why I was drawn t...
