Book 1 Review

I was so happy when I finally got to read this book. I have been waiting for it since I finished book 1 the day it released and the anticipation kept building in me every single day I waited. And I was not let down one bit.

Let's talk first about the boys. Oh the boys. I loved the boys. Never will I not love these boys. Every time they said the word "Pact", however, I wanted to throttle every single one of them. I just want them and Willa to do the sex already! Is that so much to ask for? But Jane Washington is one of the queens of slow burn, so I guess I'll be waiting for a while.

I thought the mythology was really expanded in this book, which made me excited. We got to know more about the gods and their history. I especially thought a certain competition was so exciting. There was a huge revelation that I kinda saw coming but at the same time was surprising nonetheless. I'm very interested in seeing how Willa and the guys deal with it in the next book.

There were moments where I was literally screaming "no no no no" in my room. I think if you've read the book, you probably know what I'm talking about. It involves Chaos and a certain neutral party. Jaymin and Jane are cruel people for putting me through that.

I thought the ending was fabulous. I finally got a taste of what I was wanting and I couldn't be happier with the three characters that were involved. I hope we get a lot more of what happened in the next book.

All in all, I thought this was a great installment. I honestly can't decide if I like Trickery or Persuasion more. It's just so hard to choose as both have their amazingness. I feel like the first book was awesome because it was the boys and Willa meeting each other and learning about each others' quirks (and Willa's penchant for nudity). However, in this book they're already friends and know each other well. I thought both books were fantastic.

I also have a new favorite word/insult: schweed: cross between a shit-head and a weed. I love it just as much as I love Willa. I also should mention I still identify with Willa more than any other character and I think that we become more and more alike as these books go on?
