I finished the book but I don’t really know how to rate it… I liked it but I didn’t?? I really liked Hanna’s thoughts and they way they were written, but I could have used more plot, a little more action, and a little more Death. The cliffhanger is want I really what to read the second book for, but I have my reservations.

World building is phenomenal. Their relationship building *chef kiss*. The spice
World building is phenomenal. Their relationship building *chef kiss*. The spice
This was a fast, fun read. I liked the main character, and love a mythology book. Enjoyed the spice level too. There were a few details I found confusing, as well as a couple characters that were introduced and then seemed to be forgotten.
Does this deserve 3 stars? I'm not sure. Bits or it were fantastic- the grief Hanna felt over the loss or her father, the descriptions of Finnish mythology. I nearly dnfed at around 60% because the relationship with Death was stressing me out and I needed a break.
But there were bits I really did not like - the dialogue throughout felt off to me, and Hannas inner monologue felt weird. That inner monologue was doing a lot of explaining of her personality that we also never saw play out in the story. I didn't really understand the progression of her relationship with Death - after the initial attraction I couldn't really understand what he was meant to find compelling about her. The story also felt a bit unbalanced, the ending rushed.
I'm not sure what to take from all this. I decided to read this because I wanted something light and breezy, was surprised at how not light and breezy it was and am now annoyed that it wasn't more serious. I'm fairly certain I'm going to read the sequal right away.
