The Throne of Broken Gods by Amber V. Nicole

"Then, Samkiel, you will know this is how the world ends." But it was not this world. No, it was mine. It was Dianna. The world quakes in fear as the last shred of Dianna's humanity is ripped from her. As it should. Grief consumes Dianna, burning away any semblance of good within her and threatening the budding relationship between her and Liam. Now, Liam must pull her back from the brink of complete damnation before time runs out.

Wow. Well, if the first book started slow, this one started with G force speed. It picks up right where the first one left off, with rage and sorrow and grief leading the way.

I really liked how many different characters perspectives this book had - I think there were 5 or 6? Initially I was not sure how I would feel about it, but I ended up really liking it.

I really enjoyed reading through Dianna's pain and healing, and seeing everything Samkiel does to help. It was endearing (yes, even the killing certain betraying assholes is endearing to me and you can't change my mind).

It ends on the ultimate cliffhanger and I cannot wait until the third one comes out! If you like bad ass FMC, morally grey everyone, world building, gods, monsters, pain, despair, love, healing, stages of grief, this book is for you!

I will say this could be a difficult read for people who aren't seasoned readers. My reasoning for this is the different character perspectives, and also the timeline. Each chapter tells you where in time they are (2 weeks later, 1 day later, etc.) but it jumps around. So maybe it is 2 weeks later from Samkiels perspective, and then the next chapter is 6 months later from Dianna's perspective. I was able to stay on track but less seasoned readers could get confused.
