I received this book from the publisher via netgalley in exchange for an honest review 
 Ugh. Not sure where to even begin with this. I am giving it three stars because it wasn't awful, but it wasn't great either...frankly it was either interesting, annoying or boring... So here were are. The concept isn't bad, but the biggest mistake of ANY book can have is when the secondary characters are more interesting than the main ones. 
 Things I liked? The idea that depending on what you believe in spiritually (or for atheists where you are from) determines what Death God or his/her offspring reaps you when you die. Umm, and Shelby the MC's BFF, that's about it. 
 Big issues, aside from the one I mentioned above?: 
 EVERYONE and I do mean EVERYONE acts smarter than Blake, the MC. She spends the first half of the book whining, complaining and trying to find a way around the rules when everyone is screaming at her that souls have to be reaped in a certain time frame in a certain way. She is stubborn to the point of idiocy and has a hard time coping with things she is seeing and experiencing. 
 Once Blake does accept her powers suddenly she is BAM all super powerful insta-reaper who needs basically no training and doesn't tire like other half breed Death Deities. Also did I mention she is a Mary Sue (albeit an adrenaline junkie). Special Snow Flake who doesn't think she's pretty and is oh so totally AVERAGE. 
 The only YA trope this novel didn't have was a insta-love and love triangle, so I guess that's something. The book also went about ten pages longer than is should have so hopefully this copy hasn't had an edit yet. There is going to be a sequel, but let's leave a little mystery to what that book will be about instead of giving us a basic plot point run down the final chapter of the current book. Have I mentioned how sick of YA series I am? 
 This was an easy read and parts were good and enjoyable, nothing really wrong with the writing and I may give this author another chance with a different book. 
 So....Happy Reading.
