About this deal

This for me was a solid 4 stars because it was interesting and felt unique in how Death and Hazel come into each other’s orbits. Marcus has been shortlisted for the CILIP Carnegie Medal five times, the Edgar Allan Poe Award (twice) and the Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize (four times).

The Shadow Queen is there, gathering strength, recruiting a new army of the Undead for a final confrontation. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. she's a wilting daisy woven into a entryway mat everyone stomps all over and i really hope she grows beyond that personality in future books.But it's proving incredibly difficult, and with the odds seemingly stacked against them, the biggest question of all is. No backbone at all, extremely frustrating to see her just get abused and she is too dumb to just tell her father about it and the fact she won't for stupid reasons. There is a mortal love interest for the FMC as well but I don’t know if this series will be why choose. There’s zero follow-up, which is fine if they’re not important to the story, but if they’re not important about the story why focus on them for the first 50-55% of the book? However being in 1666 the Black Death plagued the city of Eyam and forced the people into quarantine, meaning RT was forced into life without his fiancé.

at about 51% the story very suddenly changes pace and abandons almost all of the characters from the first half of the book which was pretty off putting. I stumbled across the author’s TikTok and saw some of her videos promoting this book and just had to read it. Whilst this presents a very welcome opportunity for them to get out of Morganville and away from the nasty Morley Vampire it also comes with the unexpected downside of Oliver accompanying them as chaperone. We take pride in offering a wide selection of used books, from classics to hidden gems, ensuring there’s something for every literary palate.

I also appreciated that the FMC isn’t super angsty in second-guessing her decisions - I like an FMC who evaluates the options, makes a decision, and is more or less at peace with it - none of that wishy-washy agonizing over her own choice. Rachel Caine is the author of over thirty novels, including the bestselling Morganville Vampires series. This should have been half of a full book because absolutely nothing happens and the main character's helplessness angers me incredibly.

Finch doesn’t take his foot off the accelerator right up until the last page which leaves you breathless and stunned, desperate for more. I don't know why I was fascinated by these stories, but maybe simply because I find them to be more glamorous than contemporary stories.

Rose's excellent writing-taut,economical and evocative-successfully counters his narrative contrivance,making this historical thriller an enthralling read, while he reserves one last twist for the unwary reader. Which mobster shows and movies inspired the team to create a book about a mega-powerful crime family?It skews a little more urban fantasy but is also jam-packed full of clan intrigue and angst and love and betrayal. HOWEVER if you are reading this book because you saw a tiktok or insta reel staying there is a revenge plot with “who did this to you? I'm not opposed to a "no plot just vibes" book for a good pick-me-up where I can go along for the ride and enjoy a good time but this is definitely leaning towards the "no plot no vibes" side.

A captivating story of love and loss, THE KISS OF DEATH is a stunning companion volume to the bestselling MY SWORDHAND IS SINGING.
