Publisher’s Summary: Kate Winters has won immortality. But if she wants a life with Henry in the Underworld, she'll have to fight for it.
Becoming immortal wasn't supposed to be the easy part. Though Kate is about to be crowned Queen of the Underworld, she's as isolated as ever. And despite her growing love for Henry, ruler of the Underworld, he's becoming ever more distant and secretive. Then, in the midst of Kate's coronation, Henry is abducted by the only being powerful enough to kill him: the King of the Titans.
As the other gods prepare for a war that could end them all, it is up to Kate to save Henry from the depths of Tartarus. But in order to navigate the endless caverns of the Underworld, Kate must enlist the help of the one person who is the greatest threat to her future.
Henry's first wife, Persephone.
After Kate spent 6 months away from the new world that she is a part of now, she is super excited to return. I found that to be odd; Kate growing so attached to the new world even though she was away for such a long period of time with utterly no contact. But anyways, she returns to pure craziness and Henry is now acting odd toward her.
Pretty much right from the start, I was left wondering if something horrible was going to happen to one or more of the characters. At first I wasn’t overly concerned with why Henry was acting so unusual toward Kate, but I then began questioning, along with Kate, whether or not he truly cares for her. Kate pissed me off a lot in this book. I felt like she was way too emotional, and she let being pushed around get the best of her. Instead of learning from her mistakes in the first book, she seems a little too naïve…instead of acting on her feelings and insecurities, she just dismisses them. She’s one of those girls I think would find a DB guy to beat her, cheat on her, and talk crap about her right to her face…and then, even if she were to threaten to leave, she’d end up making excuses for his behavior! OK...so I went a little extreme with that one. It's not that bad, but bad enough to get on my nerves. LOL Well, she does actually grow a backbone slowly-but-surely throughout the book. Thank goodness! Anyways, enough with my ranting about Kate.
Overall, this story was really good. And, at the end of Goddess Interrupted there is a crazy twist and a horrible betrayal, and now I’m dying for the next book in this series!!!
Wow! Interesting, I might have the same issues with Kate as you, can't stand when characters whine! But I'm sure I will get over it!
ReplyDeleteHey thank very much for this lovely review this book is def going into my to read list. Very cool blog you have created here I will be back :)
ReplyDeleteOMG the end was like WHOA!! I am really looking forward to the next one too. I am reading The Goddess Legacy right now. Did you read The Goddess Hunt? It takes pace between the first and second book. I loved it.
ReplyDeleteWell, you made me want to read it! I love a twisted ending:) I see you love paranormal romance . . . if you stop by my blog this week Jaime Rush is giving away her book that was released today. She's not YA--but her next series will be.
ReplyDeleteI was so excited for this book, but I didn't love it. I was so annoyed by Kate and Henry. I didn't like the ending. Surprisingly, Persephone was my favorite character.
ReplyDeleteMan, I sound like a grump. Sorry!
I'm glad you enjoyed Goddess Interrupted!
Lol so I totes skimmed this since I'm reading Interrupted now but I can't stand Henry. I'm a James girl ;)
ReplyDeleteOh and Kate's already annoying me!
