Reaping Me Softly by Kate Evangelista
5.0
Reading a book so different in story line from anything you've ever gotten your hands on before is such a sweet treat. It is like opening a present and finding exactly what you want inside. Okay maybe a bit cliche, but if I am speaking honestly, there are so many books out today and we have so many choices, that when you can find one that is well written, well presented, and totally different from anything you've read before, it is fantastic.
Arianne Wilson can see dead people because of a near death experience she had last year. She also happens to be crushing hard for a boy named Niko Clark that is in her chemistry class. She doesn't realize that Niko is a Reaper that takes people's souls when it is their time to die. She doesn't realize that Niko is totally obsessed with his calling and the work he does, that's until he meets Arianne Wilson.
The voices of each character is told from the third person which for this story is wonderful because it lets the reader understand all the characters involved. You get to get inside the head of "Death" Niko's Master, his mentor who trained him, and both Arianne and Nicholas as well. This was a great idea made by the author. Since the concept was so new and fresh, reading all points of view of each character in different scenes really spiced up the dialogue. Such a creatively crafted story by Kate Evangelista.
I am literally mesmerized by the story of Arianne and Niko . It was not a typical love story, but a non-stop action pact and emotionally charged ride of love,death, and friendship. The way the author was able to speak as if you were actually talking to "Death" made the story so read for me. The idea that there are actually humans that are walking around and reaping people's souls, could be construed as far-fetched. However, the author was an absolute expert at convincing you.
If you enjoy reading paranormal romance, this is a book you need to read!
