![]() ![]() Dead parent? Check! Awkward Teenage Romance? Check! I also felt the ending was super predictable and at the end of it all, I just felt disappointed. Stay tuned for those reviews! The romance felt forced, like the author was checking something off of a YA trope checklist. But strange things start to happen there, and Briseis will learn dark secrets about her family as she attempts to root out the threat. I definitely read a couple of smutty romances when the pace in this book got too slow. I really did not like the ending of This Poison Heart, but I still had hopes for this sequel, and I just could NOT get into it! I kept looking for other distractions while I was reading, which is always a bad sign. I read this a month ago and if you can’t tell by my tone, I wasn’t very enthusiastic about it. ![]() ![]() Then they inexplicably keep meeting random Gods/Goddesses/Fates and then spend a WEEK waiting on Marie to get fake passports and charter a private plane to some random island where they think the last piece may be. So what does the gang do? Well, they already have all of the pieces except one, because Deus Ex Aunt Circe shows up with most of them in tow. If Briseis and the gang can reunite all the pieces of the Abstryus Heart in the next 28 days, they can bring her Mom back from the Underworld. This Wicked Fate picks up directly after the events of This Poison Heart, with Briseis’s Mom dead, her soul held by the Goddess Hecate. This review contains MASSIVE SPOILERS for This Poison Heart, so read at your own risk! ![]()
