Summary:
What happens when you're stalked by Death? You fall in love with him, of course.
Pagan Moore doesn't cheat Death, but instead, falls in love with him.
Seventeen year old Pagan Moore has seen souls her entire life. Once she realized the strangers she often saw walking through walls were not visible to anyone else, she started ignoring them. If she didn't let them know she could see them, then they left her alone. Until she stepped out of her car the first day of school and saw an incredibly sexy guy lounging on a picnic table, watching her with an amused smirk on his face. Problem is, she knows he's dead.
Not only does he not go away when she ignores him, but he does something none of the others have ever done. He speaks. Pagan is fascinated by the soul. What she doesn't realize is that her appointed time to die is drawing near and the wickedly beautiful soul she is falling in love with is not a soul at all.
He is Death and he's about to break all the rules.

Thoughts:
This book has been on my TBR for a long time. And thought I have read it
back in December, I’m posting the review only now. Because as always I’ve not
been patient I started the second book right after the first one, so as always
I have everything jumbled up in my brain. But I still can say one thing: the
book is really good. It held my interest from the first page till last. And I
can never say that I was a bit bored from it. It was quite intriguing and well
because the blurb gives a little too much I kind of knew what to see, but no
matter that the book didn’t disappoint.
Maybe it’s just me, but I think there was a lack of character
description. The only character description I knew really well was Leif’s. Dank
is what I saw on cover so I didn’t really see into his description. But well
with Pagan, I didn’t even know she had green eyes, until I read book 2. But if
you don’t really try to see into it, it’s nothing special and doesn’t disturb
you while reading. But well, the book was still great.
The idea of death falling in love isn’t new, but it is always
interesting to read new perspectives. Somehow, I really didn’t get why all
powerful death was answering to somebody else. I mean it’s quite ridiculous and
how can death be cast into hell, for Heaven’s sake, that parts were so
frustrating I wanted to shout at somebody. I really liked the whole description
o the psychiatry. It was quite interesting, and well I liked Pagan there very
much. I can’t say I wasn’t affected by Pagan at all, she was an amazing character.
She had her faults, but she still was amazing. I loved her for her
selflessness. And that she was always there for her friends. I do think it is a
really good story to read and well I wish you all Happy Reading. I hope you
will enjoy it. Either say, don’t forget to share your thoughts.
XOXO
