The Woebegones: PERSEPHONE by A. Noel Biddy

My Review: 

All I have to say is poor Persephone. I got a little lost a few times in the beginning, but by the middle, I was really enjoying the book. After that, I got a little bored with all the long dithyrambic-like inner monologues, and she never seemed to learn her lesson on leaving her children by themselves.

All in all, I think this book stands at about the same level as Franky in my opinion. I loved seeing Edward's point of view with their relationship. Having both of their viewpoints helped me understand the depth of care and devotion to one another, even though the beginning was strange. BUT that strange beginning came to light with a twist that I thought was super intriguing.

I feel like Persephone and Teresa are really the only two of this series so far that had nice moments to breathe between bouts of tragedy and horror, and I thoroughly appreciated it.

Summary: 

The story of Persephone is an unrelentingly bleak tale of the lost one who wishes to be found and set free from the harsh brutalities of life. Sadly through a series of events where her body, mind and soul define the fall of her character and notorious decisions made when completely at rock bottom it is then Persephone must face the mortifying truth of her character and with her eyes wide open with the desire to improve and better herself will she in the end be granted a new direction that returns the love she yearns and with a leap of faith be granted everything she ever wanted.
