Dark Restraint by Katee Robert
4.0
*I received a copy from Netgalley*
I love Dark Olympus. It’s one of my favourite series, and Katee Robert is a favourite author of all time. I looked at a few reviews before reading this, and people were let down. They weren’t that good from what I was seeing, and there were a few positive reviews. I was a little nervous going into this one because of the very clearly divided reviews, but I really enjoyed this one.
I’m not going to lie, Minos and his entire group pissed me off right from the start when they showed up in Wicked Beauty, but in Cruel Seduction I eventually didn’t mind Theseus. This one? I already really liked Ariadne, but I wasn’t sold on The Minotaur. He seemed like a massive bully, and the type of romantic partner I wouldn’t trust. However, getting his POV changed things for me. I really did enjoy his POV, but Ariadne was great.
This is definitely my least favourite in the series so far, but yet I still enjoyed it so much it’s getting a 4 star rating. All the other books have been 5 stars, because I absolutely loved them, but this one wasn’t on the same levels as the others.
I’m so incredibly looking forward to Sweet Obsession. I loved seeing more of Icarus in this book, and I am SO EXCITED to finally see Poseidon in a full book. The previous books, he’s mentioned and only shows up a few times, so I’m SO ready to see him in his full glory.
Overall, this was a good addition to the series, and it’s a heavy turning point for the last 3 books that I’m so interested in seeing where Katee Robert is taking this series.
