I haven't been this excited about a book in a long time. I could not put this down and it hooked me from page one. It is really well written and I look forward to the second installment in the series.

I wasn't a big fan of the first book, but gave the sequel a chance at redemption, but unfortunately, this just wasn't all that great for me either.

This one was difficult for me. This book was over-hyped and I was looking forward to a story that enticed me and kept me hooked, but alas this one didn't quite do it for me and I'll tell you why... Persephone's character was too insecure, it bordered on annoying, the storyline became a bit repetitive in the fact that as soon as Hades and Persephone were good, something happened and Persephone got insecure and did something to damage their relationship. Hades could also have done with a bit more depth to his character. Even stating the above, the book was okay, it just didn't have that something extra for me personally.

This was my first book of Colleen Hoover that I've read and I have to say... WOW. This book had me hooked from the beginning. It was raw, real and at some stages..... disturbing. As a mother some of the scenes were horrific and difficult to read. I love Lowen's character in the sense that she felt real, not some perfect fictional character, but someone that a lot of us would be able to relate to on some level or another. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for something that challenges you and keeps you on the edge of your seat, not to mention the epic twist at the end.

I loved this book, I did not see the ending coming, but it wrapped up the story beautifully!

I love this series and this may be the best book in the series yet. Can't wait for the rest.
