Thank you Spencer Hill Press for sending me a copy of this book for review!

Summary:
"History is on repeat, and things didn't go so well the last time. "Alexandria isn't sure she's going to make it to her eighteenth birthday--to her Awakening. A long-forgotten, fanatical order is out to kill her, and if the Council ever discovers what she did in the Catskills, she's a goner... and so is Aiden.

If that's not freaky enough, whenever Alex and Seth spend time "training"--which really is just Seth's code word for some up-close and personal one-on-one time--she ends up with another mark of the Apollyon, which brings her one step closer to Awakening ahead of schedule. Awesome.

But as her birthday draws near, her entire world shatters with a startling revelation and she's caught between love and Fate. One will do anything to protect her. One has been lying to her since the beginning. Once the gods have revealed themselves, unleashing their wrath, lives will be irrevocably changed... and destroyed.

Those left standing will discover if love is truly greater than Fate..

My Review:
Jennifer L. Armentrout has done it again! Deity has to be my favorite book in the half blood series and one of my favorites this year! This book has action, romance, and lots of awesome revelations!

I LOVED the romance in this book! Once again, I am back on team Aiden! After reading Pure, I actually sort of started to like Seth-but after reading Deity I am back on Aiden’s team! Aiden is so loving towards Alex, he really cares for her and he will do anything to protect Alex. I really love how he loves her for who she is-no matter that she’s a half-blood or will become the apollyon. Alex and Aiden both really compliment each other as well. Alex with her strong will and passion and Aiden with his protectiveness and how he is willing to give Alex his whole heart. Even though the the time they have is brief-what they have makes me hope in the end of this series that love will conquer all.

The plot of Deity is so awesome! Every scene is action packed and no scene should be overlooked. I don’t want to give away any spoilers but we really learn SO MUCH important information in this book. From the council, Seth, the underworld and Aiden-so many questions are answered but so many more formed. I’m really glad Jennifer gives us all of these important details and sets up the stage for the next book. I loved seeing the progression of Alex throughout this book as well. No longer do we see the angry girl that we met in the first book but instead we see a girl with a passion to protect those around her and will do anything to help others.

Overall, Deity is another phenomenal book to an AMAZING series. I highly recommend that you check this book out and if you haven’t read this series..please do!
