I enjoyed “Electric Idol” just as much as “Neon Gods” if not a little more because the plot in this one was slightly more interesting!
The storyline was super interesting especially with the “fake dating”/ “marriage of convenience” and the relationship development between Psyche and Eros was, albeit slow, really nice in my opinion
I really like Psyche but Eros has my heart - this man deserves the biggest hug and all the love! He might have done a lot of bad things (thanks to his mother) but in the end Eros is just a man who wants to be loved and be part of a family and with Psyche he found both of these things which was absolutely beautiful to see! ❤️🩹
The relationship between those two was very touching and the way they cared for each other since the beginning of their marriage was really sweet (especially Eros and his need to protect his wife 🤭)
The spicy scenes were amazing as well like always if Katee Robert writes them!
I am super excited for the third book and can’t wait to dive into the story of Helen, Achilles, and Patroclus 🫣
Ich mochte dieses Buch auch richtig gerne! den ersten Teil mochte ich zwar etwas mehr, weil ich die Charaktere etwas lieber mochte, aber ich habe an diesem Buch nichts auszusetzen!
It was entertaining but wasn’t as great as the first book. Especially in regards to the setting and characters. Even the spicy parts were kind of boring for me. Still might give the third one a chance
My travel book
A plus size Psyche? An Eros who‘s his mothers Aphrodite‘s killer? And they have to get married to save Psyche from getting killed.
I love retellings of mythology anyway. But throw in some smut and then even a plus size and I‘m sold!
I also loved that you got both perspectives.
Really enjoyed the book!
Era un cazador de monstruos, de gente que pretendía hacer daño a la única familia que tengo en este mundo. Hasta que un día levanté la vista y me di cuenta de que yo era el mayor monstruo de todos.
AMO TANTO A EROS Y PSIQUE, son de mis parejas mitologicas favoritas.
El desarrollo de este libro me gusto mucho más que el primero, desde el inicio puedes sentir la quimica y tensión de los protagonistas, no dejan el problema principal de lado, y es muy spicy. Además me encanta que en este libro Eros es un villano, Y QUEDA como villano, si quiere mejorar, pero en el primero nos pintaron a Hades como el villano y era un pancito de Dios, pero aqui podemos ver a Eros siendo cruel, y no solo como una apariencia.
Me encanta Psique, amo su fuerza, adoro a esta mujer.
Hermes sigue siendo lo mejor de la saga. Merece su propio libro.
Es criminal lo perfectamente que Psique encaja contra mí. ¿Cómo se supone que voy a seguir con mi vida después de saber que hay una persona que es la otra mitad de mi rompecabezas?
Sizzling romance and intriguing political drama and Powerplays. Though not my favourite book, it’s a great feel good steamy romance with a happy ending and few massive twists and turns.
I read Neon Gods last year and got the second book for my birthday. I am so happy to have finally read it. I love the tropes in this one and Psyche and Eros are really something haha. I would definitely recommend this series if you enjoy spicy modern greek mythology books
I liked Neon Gods when I read it but nothing more, and it's possible I loved this even more. I loved Psyche and Eros, her pragmatism and intelligence and his battle with his demons.
Unfortunately, the plot wasn’t the greatest to be honest. It was a bit lackluster as nothing really happens until the very end. Also, the entire storyline and romance all occur under 2 weeks, which was kind of funny.
The relationship and romance between Eros and Psyche is definitely the main highlight of this book. Even though it was insta-love, they still had great chemistry, angst, banter and spice. The smut is really passionate and hot.
I did also like how there was low conflict between Eros and Psyche. All the drama and issues happened around their relationship.
The ending and epilogue was a nice conclusion and I am interested in continuing this series.
Overall, just an enjoyable and smutty read.
Since I discovered Katee Robert for myself, I’ve fallen in love with her books. Volume one of the Dark Olympus series (Neon Gods) blew my mind and that’s why I was extremely excited for the next part of the series. I really like the cover and it goes very well with the plot. As soon as I read the blurb, I knew I had to read the book. My expectations were very high and after reading this book I can say that all my expectantions have been fully met.
I love the setting of this series, the plot was exciting from the first time i opend it and the characters were always on my mind. The tension kept building until the a big bang in the end. There were a few similarities to the first book, but volume two can stand completely on its own. The book also has a good dose of drama, but that never was too exaggerated. The erotic scenes are damn hot and well and authentically written. They blend in wonderfully with the plot and never dominate it. Katees writing is so beautiful, emotional and its easy to read. I just flew through the pages and couldn’t put the book down. It was an amazing read.
This time it’s about Eros and Psyche. She is the sister of Persephone and she has a very different personality. Psyche knows how to play the game, but she doesn’t get lost in it and she remains true to herself. Eros and Psyche are both broken characters. The scars of both their pasts still linger today. Nevertheless, they have both grown and they go through a great development in the course of the story. Eros in particular is learning that he is worth so much more. He’s so much more than just his mother’s hit man. Psyche and her love for him helping a lot. In addition to the two main characters, Hades, Persephone and the new Zeus also reappear. I love the whole dynamic of the thirteen and their balance of power.
„Electric Idol“ was an absolutely brilliant sequel and I can’t wait for the third part to come out. The setting and the characters just offer so much potential for more great stories. If you like Greek mythology, lots of well written smut and fascinating new stories, you should defiantly read this book.
Hat mir fast noch besser gefallen als Band 1. Die Charaktere waren sehr cool und es ist sehr High Society Mäßig mit Influencer und Promis. Die Perspektive war sehr cool. Die Welt wieder echt interessant und faszinierend. Love Story diesmal ein anderer Ansatz aber gut gemacht. Spannend. Das Ende bzw der Höhepunkt war nur nicht so "Woah" Mäßig wie erwartet.
