A touch of malice book 15/13/2023 I'm not sure about you, but I don't really mind smut scenes in books. What did we get instead? Hades LITERALLY only shows up when there's a smut scene, excluding that one weird-ass "training" scene, which felt more like a fever dream than anything else. It was infuriating to read this book knowing how much he could have added to the plot as well as Persephone's growth in her powers as a goddess. This book, on the other hand? I'm pretty sure Hades undergoes character regression, rather than character growth/development. Meanwhile, in the second book, he started to withdraw a bit from the plot as more emphasis was placed on Persephone's growth (but also because the two were constantly at odds with each other). In the first book, he was a dark and morally ambiguous character, with an obvious soft spot for Persephone, but was a pretty intgeral part of the plot. I also happen to loathe those kinds of books.įor starters, there's Hades himself. Other times, books are terrible, but when you read them, you get the feeling that it actually could have been much better, and that there was potential in the plot and characters that ultimately went to waste.Ī Touch of Malice is exactly that kind of book. Just plain bad, and completely irredeemable.
