Casket Case follows Nora, a casket store owner, and Garrett, a logistics coordinator for Death. This wasn’t the light and quirky rom com I was expecting but I really enjoyed it. Nora is imperfect and messy and her relationship with Garrett is imperfect and messy. I liked the small town romance mixed with heavier themes. I liked following Nora as she navigated grief, figured out what she wanted for her future, and learned to accept death as a part of life. I thought this was a great debut and am looking forward to reading more by Lauren Evans.
