I still want to give it a try, but it's not high on my list anymore. ;) Great review.Ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11698452908549878264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-79626871118249067672011-04-25T16:12:41.440-04:002011-04-25T16:12:41.440-04:00Oh really?

...Oh really? Would you like to borrow my jeans? LOL<br /><br />Yeah, I'm not sure this one is for me. I thought, because of the title, that the tests would stand out a bit more. The fact that you can't really distinguish the gods also doesn't sit well with me. <br /><br />Thanks for the review.Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-34248251266050677402011-04-24T02:20:44.211-04:002011-04-24T02:20:44.211-04:00I've just finished another book based on the s...I've just finished another book based on the same myth and will probably read this one too.

Good to know, I'll have to keep that in mind if/when I read it.

I agree with you from your perspective of the characters of the actual Greek gods, but for me that wasn't a factor in my enjoyment of the book. I loved Henry by the end and I think it's fine that he's hard to get to know for a start.Tahliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10590148176559001288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-40122537698047682392011-04-22T20:24:44.476-04:002011-04-22T20:24:44.476-04:00Great review.

I am hoping that in the second installment he becomes happier and more charming.Nic @ Irresistible Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09774834560378283927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-7794248686359693452011-04-22T12:11:15.981-04:002011-04-22T12:11:15.981-04:00I haven't read this one yet, but I can see how...I haven't read this one yet, but I can see how those issues might be difficult to get beyond. I'm really intrigued by the premise, though. And kind of curious about this non-bad boy Hades. It's interesting that she took that approach. I'll check it out if I have a chance. I'm curious.Carolina M.

I've read a lot of rave reviews about this so I'm surprised that you gave this 3 hearts only. <br /><br />I fell in love with the premise the first time I read about it. But an unbad boy Hades? That's sounds wrong. I've downloaded this from NG and I have this at the top of my TBR list, but I think I'll skip this one for now.Chelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09113611207753873326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-87266764943388387242011-04-21T16:00:26.681-04:002011-04-21T16:00:26.681-04:00Thanks for review.

It took me a while to warm to Kate, she was a bit mopey in the beginning for me. And Henry I just couldn't connect with, though I'm hoping now that they're sort of together, some of the depression will lift and we'll get a more dynamic Hades in book 2:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.com
