Ok... So I was really looking forward to this book. I pre-ordered it and waited anxiously for its release date. I was so hopeful, especially after reading the ending to the prior book. But then I started reading and honestly all I can say is blah... I wanted love, action, adventure. After all, this was supposed to be a young adult conclusion to a love story, right? All I felt was a little let down - not all the way, just a little let down. Let me tell you a little bit about what I liked and didn't like.PROS:
I loved Henry, but then again I have loved him all along. I would have done anything and everything for a husband like that. Someone that loves you so much, would do anything to keep you safe, would trade their life for yours... dreamy and romantic right there on the page every time he was mentioned. Obviously as a thirty something woman I was deeply moved by his actions and the idea of what he looked like, hahaha!
I liked Cronus. I know, who likes the villain in these books, but really he as remarkably well written. I understood why he wanted his children to treat him like an equal instead of a criminal - when in fact he was far more powerful than any of them. I don't know, but as a villain he made sense.
I liked Walter's ending... this is SPOILER so if you haven't read the book yet, please stop! Walter admitting his mistakes to Kate, and telling her he was doing everything for his children, made me understand him. He may have sent his beloved daughter to her death (though really, I am not sure that was totally his fault) and he may have left Kate alone to deal with her mother's death in the first book, but he was doing everything for the greater good, his children, his family. For some reason this ending made me understand Walter and it made me want to give him a hug. He may be a horrible father, but he is an amazing leader in the sense that the greater good takes precedence even over his own wants and loves.
Now onto my CONS:
I hate Kate. I know a lot of people have gone on and on in their reviews about how much of a martyr she is... and seriously, she is! When people tell you to stay put, don't think you know better! You probably don't! When you have a husband like Henry, who has been around for millennia and who has always sought to protect you, tell him your plans! Don't think you know better. Honestly I thought she was like nails on a chalk board and considering she is the mail character I almost quit reading the book in the middle. She was a disappointment. Her only redeeming quality was her son Milo and her niceness to Cronus. After that, she was a little bit of a letdown.
Ava... Oh, I loved Ava in the first two books but in this one she was a little bit of a whiner. I mean seriously, you are working as a spy for the council. Don't start apologizing to Kate! Don't start asking to come back home! Be a goddess, be strong! Honestly, if she had just stopped apologizing I would have liked her.
Overall those were my major pros and cons... I thought the storyline regarding Calliope was overdone, but it was what the whole story had been about, so i let that go. I also thought bringing Diana into it was a little unnecessary - she just made you realize how young Kate really was and I didn't think that needed to be pushed down our throats so often. And last I love James, but he didn't really get that much story so he kind of seemed like filler to otherwise blah story.
Would I read this again? Absolutely! It was a good ending to a series, even with my blah review of it. And anytime I can read about Henry and his undying love I will.
Would I recommend it to someone? Yes, but not as a standalone book. Read it as the ending of a series and you will like it much better.
Would I buy it again? Yes. Again, good ending to a series and this series needed it!

The Goddess Inheritance A Goddess Test Novel Aimée Carter Books Reviews
I have to say that this series has been above average as a whole. It has been enjoyable and very engaging and easy to read. I also really like the fact that in a world of immortals readers get to experience the passage of time from the first to the final book. In fact, The Goddess Inheirtance opens with Kate being held prisoner by evil Calliope and Titan Cronus. And she is about to give birth to Henry's baby. Due to their agreement, Henry doesn't even know that she is a captive. This all builds up into a story featuring the final war between between Cronus and the gods. And the baby hangs in the balance of two people who don't even know what love really is.
This was a fast read. Really fast. Almost too fast. I feel like the story could have been expanded on but I did appreciate the fact that the book was missing some of the internal and emotional drama found in earlier installments. The battle was over far too quickly at the books conclusion but I have to say I loved the idea Kate comes up with to get an upperhand in the conflict. It seemed to bring the series around full circle. But a new character was introduced just in time to play a big part in solving the war and I think that just felt pretty convienant. Also Henry didn't seem to be as annoyingly moody (and I like Henry, but really, he is moody!) as he has been previously. The fact that they didn't agonize over their love for each other was also a plus. There were a couple of surprise revelations that I felt seemed hurried and out of place. One big one could have been expanded into its own book had the author chosen to do so. I still adore James and thought their banter and affection for each other was even more endearing since he has come to peace with Kate's relationship with Henry.
Still this series was highly enjoyable and I am so glad I randomly picked up the first two books one day on a whim. The rest is history. If you enjoy paranormal YA stories this one is defintely worth your time. Its a decent conclusion and I am quite satisfied with it.
