5.0

The last half of this book got me. I was in it. There was action and angst. At points I was nitpicking bits of the plot but by the end I didn't really care.

At a couple points I was shocked which I love in a book because I means it's hooked me in. There were also points that were predictable but honestly that didn't matter to me. I can't wait for the second book.

Supper interesting story! Will 100% get the sequel! 

There is a LOT of blood and mentions of blood so if that's not your feel maybe try something different. 

It has a very witchy vibe. Lots of moon symbolism, and talks of rituals, and bones. 

The book is basically about a group of Grim Reaper women and their task of guiding the dead. It was supper interesting so read. It's got alot going on.

the Romance between Annalese and Bastion was cute but also felt kinda "insta love" -y. And then to find out that they aren't even soulmates was a bit of a let down. I get it happened, like plot wise and connecting Annalese to her mother's story and all, but it felt really sudden. Like it never goes well, in my opinion, to throw in a brand new major player durring the last few chapters


Very engaging and fun!
