Can’t get enough of these characters

I love this author’s mythology stories. I have previous read the Underworld books so it was nice to see what the twins were all about. They are adorable and funny. Not sure what I think about Cupid now. But I guess he’s still a favorite. His mother is awful. I don’t think I like her at all now. I know this seems vague but didn’t want to spoil anything. Ellie is a pretty good character with genuine feelings. She is crazy for the twins but doesn’t want to choose. She loves them both. The twins have such a bond and love for one another that they don’t want to see the other crushed with rejection , yet they are jealous of one another. It’s a wonderful story.

I’m not crazy about the narration. The voices seemed forced at times like she had trouble doing them. I had to speed my audio up so it didn’t sound like over pronouncing. Ellie’s voice was so faint and high pitched that it made her sound immature at times. I think I would’ve liked her character better with a different narrator. I’m not sure why I feel this way because this narrator has done plenty other audiobooks I’ve listened to and I loved them. So it may just be me, it’s not enough to take you out of the story though. I felt like I was there in the moment. The only thing, I wish it would’ve gotten down and dirty with both twins more so than it did lol.
