This book surprised me in a lot of good ways! I didn’t know what to expect, but what I got was a twisty, shocking tale full of cynicism and hope, darkness and heart. And best of all, this book really makes you think: about goodness, about love, about choices. 
I was impressed with all of the threads the plot kept up with. I guessed some things along the way, but a lot of it still ended up surprising me.

This book is about Hell, and in some ways it’s what you’d expect… do with that what you will

I read this book start to finish in one day while sick in bed. The moment I picked it up, I couldn't put it down and wanted to get to the resolution. The story was light, snarky, and refreshing as a new take on making a deal with the devil, while still being very dark and morbid. This makes me think of a cross of The Good Place and Dead Like Me. Some subject matter felt iffy and unnecessary to the plot,

especially the parts that veered on pedophilia for Silas.

I also think the least "tight" part of the story was the HR report. It felt like it didn't match the style of an HR report and gave too much narrative/emotion, which brought me out of the story trying to skim to the next part. The backstory that is brought up in the report is important to a part of the story, but imo was a little boring and could have been shorten considerably. That is the only reason I'm not giving this a straight 5.
