🪦 DROPPED 🪦
Persephone is the Goddess of Spring by title only. The truth is, since she was a little girl, flowers have shriveled at her touch. After moving to New Athens, she hopes to lead an unassuming life disguised as a mortal journalist.
Goodreads synopsis
Hades, God of the Dead, has built a gambling empire in the mortal world and his favorite bets are rumored to be impossible.
After a chance encounter with Hades, Persephone finds herself in a contract with the God of the Dead and the terms are impossible: Persephone must create life in the Underworld or lose her freedom forever.
The bet does more than expose Persephone’s failure as a goddess, however. As she struggles to sow the seeds of her freedom, love for the God of the Dead grows—and it’s forbidden.
I cracked this bitch up, read about Hades running a gambling operation, and wondered for a minute if I would actually like this book. I really feared for one whole hot minute that I was just walking into one of those books where they made Hades into some suave mafia gent or some shit.
Maybe I’m already biased against it. Or not. I don’t know. This is going to be an annotation heavy post.
Please don’t make him into a sugar daddy mafia boy with a huge hog and a misunderstood persona (do it)
This is no longer considered edgy
Foreshadowing
Dude, Hades, that is the name of a game that a fourteen year old would play and grind his character up to level 80 and crush newbs (or alternatively be a newbie lover? sometimes children are good in video games)
Excuse me, gods have horns?
I mean no insult my liege, horns are cool, but it’s so funny in this modern ass world to imagine people saying Hades is stacked and meaning he has a huge rack on his head
Pyramid???? Bad construction. Huge footprint. But how can it be slender??
Bro how did you make this sound MEAN. They describe Lexa as hot later but man. It sounds like a put-down.
Oh man he is saving himself. Sugar daddy loyalty incoming. Dark Lord who covers his weiner and makes the suitors look away
(it’s so funny and yet i am guilty of making my main character like this so)
Yaoi face senpai
Adonis and his crew just be fuckin around I guess
Hades “Hottest Man Alive” i guess. 6’8″, five o clock shadow, smacked his head into no less than 4 doorways on the way to stand ominously over his club looking like a greased up mafia brat.
Next paragraph he’s looking at how hot she is and she is saying he is looking at her looking and she gushes in her panties.
Man why Am I being so Mean
Stretched out Artmeis Fowl lookin mother fucker
goodguydevil.jpeg i guess
A MAN BUN?!?!?!
I ended up returning this to the library because I was really not interested on just reading about what party-dog Hades looks like repeatedly. Thanks.
