Whispers in the Dark is a dark romance, that you can blow through in one sitting if you really feel up to it. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the characters, but I felt there were some scenes that were rushed and could have used some more development which is why I'm only giving it three stars. I will absolutely be reading the next book in the series because I can't wait for Ivy's story and romance.
The character development, world building, and background of everything is very well thought out and is captivating. I personally pieced things together at a certain point but it wasn't in a bad way, it was an exciting way that created anticipation. The anticipation of that mixed in with the anticipation of what was happening between Hades and Alice was just the ultimate level of GIVE ME MORE!
Adding some more build up in between certain events and before some things happened would have helped get my five stars, because it made it feel rushed and not in a clean or smooth way in a lot of spots. There were also some moments between characters that felt forced for the sake of the plot but weren't necessary and that threw things off sometimes.
