Reaper by Kyra Leigh
4.0
First off I just have to say that this cover does not do this story justice.
Yes, I know do not judge a book by the cover but really publishers should at least ask the cover designer to read the freaking book. I look at this cover and I see dark and sinister, this story is so far from that concept. I was actually pleasantly surprised when it did not meet my expectations of the cover.
The story was great, there seems to be a lot of reaper books out lately. I mean “Grim” when I say reaper. At first I was getting a bit miffed with the reaper and her staff I had to think, If I was performing a job day after day for a thousand years I’d might start acting bitchy and cranky too. The story follows Rosie who has died and how she has to perform the tasks of taken souls for the Reaper in order to advance to a more peaceful death. Quiet a concept where you have to do a bit of work after you die and it’s not easy work either. This story made me tear up and even go awhhh, that usually never happens when I read a book.
