Review

This book packed in so much plot that it was sometimes a challenge to keep up! At first, I thought we were stepping into a classic fantasy setting, full of gods and divine intrigue. But just as I was settling in, the world shifted, revealing a modern landscape complete with smartphones, newspapers, cars, and even breweries. That unexpected mix of mythology and contemporary elements threw me off at first, and while it took some getting used to, it did make for a unique perspective shift. The story had plenty of interesting moments, but the pacing and world-building didn’t always flow smoothly, making it a bit hard to stay fully engaged.

At the heart of it all is a young goddess desperate to escape her fate, so she makes a deal with a god far more powerful than she is. The catch? She won’t even know the terms until the time comes. As she navigates the human world, she’s forced to confront long-hidden truths and unravel secrets that change everything she thought she knew. While this book wasn’t a perfect read for me, I’m still invested enough in the story to pick up book two and see where things go next.
