It’s 11:30pm and I reached the end of the book without knowing it and I was like “What do you mean this story is over? This can’t be over! Where is the real plot? What happened to the souls that slipped out of the veil? Did they wreck havoc in the town of Midnight Cove? And I haven’t gotten enough of Hank yet! And Lucien, too!”. But the story is over and I didn’t notice the lack of proper plot line because I was super engrossed with with Hank and I was grinning like crazy the past 2 hours. Anyway, the author’s world building was great. But too bad she focused more on the soulmate thing rather than say, a final battle or whatever relevant to her powers or of the town. This writing felt like I was reading a fanfiction of something. You know, that kind of feels. But the story was cute. I just wish it was longer. That’s all. 4 stars because it made me happy tonight and made me think my Hank is also out there!

A quick and fun read. The world building is great, and it seems like this might turn out to be a fun series.

The Nerdy Necromancer by S.E. Babin was such a cute story, and I am such a sucker for paranormal soulmates. Add in a wonderfully created world, and you have yourself a fun paranormal romcom.
Helen is the only necromancer in her town of paranormals. She's a bit of a loner, but that's just what happens when everyone is terrified of your gift. A puppy lands on her doorstep from the Deadicated Matchmaking Services; and the attached note stated that they've found someone who doesn’t mind what she is.
This was a great way to start a series. It's fun and lighthearted. The fast pace plot had enough information to keep a good flow. The book mostly focuses on who Helen's soulmate is, but there is a side story that plays into helping her find who he is. My only complaint is that I wish there was more! I loved Helen, and I absolutely adored who her soulmate was.
