Am I… am I into the Reaper?

Yes, yes I am.

This book was so unique. I truly went into it blind (other than hearing it’s great), and I had no idea it’d be in a Victorian setting! I don’t read a lot of Victorian era works, but I’m imagining Bridgerton if it had gothic vibes and well… a lot of murder. Maybe a little case of Clue?

The twists had me gasping (ask my husband), and I was just hooked from the beginning.

Ready for book two in August!

death's powers were a little confusing at times and mc was pretty naive in the first half but the idea of the book felt original. a bit magic, a bit high society bs, a bit romance, a bit murder mystery.

One thing about me is that if Death is hot I will fold immediately.


I was kicking and giggling my feet throughout this book! Death & Signa’s banter was EVERYTHING. But I also loved how unique and atmospheric this was. Honestly, a masterpiece of a gothic romance. I’m obsessed and will be counting down the days until FoxGlove.
