This was my first read by Olivie Blake and I found the writing and the story very enjoyable. It's theme is life and what makes it worth living, told via a comedy featuring angels, demons, a vampire, a ghost, gods, and the godson of Death. The dialogue was witty, sharp, and funny. There were some moments in the plot where I had to reread to figure out what was happening, but regardless I found the story engaging. This was a great choice as an early fall read and I would readily reread this in future.
