Sign Here by Claudia Lux
5.0
Sign Here pulled me in because it offered me everything I so want in a novel, and it absolutely fulfilled its promises. I hope it, unlike Pey (or Cal), isn’t a demon, because I’d be really screwed.
At first, the parallel plots seemed so simple: there’s a family with some skeletons in their closets, and a demon willing to exploit them. I’ve always been interested in subversive theological themes, which is why I picked up Sign Here in the first place, so I was immediately curious about the implications of this corporate Hell system. The plot became quite complex at points, with multiple stories and perspectives at the forefront, but this complexity made the payoffs so worth it. All of the plot twists made *so* much sense! This attention to every detail across this complex timeline was really wonderful.
