Reviews

“The second book in this delightful series is again a laugh-out-loud, entertaining tale that brings in new characters as well as our favorites from the first novel. The introduction of the sassy narrator Bacchus is brilliantly funny as his love of drama interweaves the fast-paced action as we follow Cupid on a perilous mission with more twists and turns for the reader to enjoy.”

“It is sad when you wait for a book and read it too fast and then you have to wait yet again because you devour it. Just like the first book, God Awful Loser, I love the Roman gods and characters. Too often is the Greeks we read about and not the Romans. Bacchus’ point of view was hilarious. Another fun story about Cupid with (spoiler removed) being the bad guy. And now I wait for the next book in the series. Very few books have caused me to giggle out loud. This one does! I wish there were more writers like Acevedo who write YA books that adults enjoy.”

“While watching my nephews, and other than helping them in various activities, I once again finished the book in about 6 hours. Loved the story from Bacchus’ point of view but with the reading of Cupids thoughts kept me connected to the original character. Built the story in a solid paced fashion with twists and turns throughout this crazy adventure. Passionately bringing old annoying and underappreciated characters out into the open with hidden strength and courageousness just waiting for the right opportunity. I thoroughly enjoyed the sequel to one of my new favorite books and can’t wait for more. I’m even more excited to read this than any of the new Rick Riordan books coming out.”
