** spoiler alert ** 
 Honestly, I picked this book up for one reason and one reason only. The Title. 
 I find myself enjoying books more when I know absolutely nothing about them, so I try to do that with all the books I can. 
 Seeing it I thought it would be a book kinda about "Deaths" daughter who goes and kills all the bad people out there and eating their sins. 
 Well.... I was wrong.... 
 This book is about a girl who is the daughter of a sin eating woman (duh) , who is taken away by the queen because she is said to be the daughter of the gods, send to earth to punish all those who are setenced of treason to the throne and so the land. 
 Still sounds intriguing? Well hang on... 
 Aside from the ocasional flashbacks and explanation of Twylla, for what the foods mean, we don't really get to see much of the actual "Sin Eating". 
 (Which is when a person is dying, the family calls the sin eater, who eats all sorts of food wich each and everyone of them represents some sort of sin, like jealousy or anger etc. etc. So that the sins of the death can be forgiven.) 
 We read more of Twylla's lonley live as a punisher and how everyone is treating her, until one of her guards quits and is to be replaced by a new one and later when her other guard is getting ill, we see the relationship that blooms between Twylla and her guard. 
 The main protagonist however seems to be the Queen in this story as we find out more and more about her. 
 Until the book became about the "love story" between Twylla and Lief, I really liked this book. 
 The story seemed so amazing and I thought we would explore more about her "Powers" or at least Sin Eating but then it became clear that we wouldn't. 
 Beside the first dissapointment that we didn't get to see much about the eating, I was more dissapointed that Twylla wasn't really a descendant of the Gods and even more so that her skin didn't actually was coated in poison. 
 I would loved for the author to have made this book more about that, than a love story. 
 I mean why? Why take away every amazing part of the book you could have turn into one of the best stories ever?? 
 The ending was also to dissapointing and sudden to me... 
 After everything, still 4/5 stars because the story had me intrigued enough that I absorbed the first 2/3 of the book without even realizing it and because I really, really enjoyed this book. 
 Also because I have high hopes for the next book in the series. I can't wait to read it.
