Call Me Grim
Call Me Grim #1
by Elizabeth Holloway
Goodreads blurb: The truck should have turned Libbi Piper into
a Libbi Pancake—and it would have, too, if Aaron hadn't shown up and saved her
life. The problem? Aaron's the local Grim Reaper . . . and he only saved
Libbi's life because he needs someone to take over his job. Now, Libbi has two
days to choose between dying like she was supposed to, or living a lonely life
as Death Incarnate. Talk about a rock and a hard place. And the choice goes
from hard to sucktastic when her best friend shows up marked: condemned as a future
murderer. Libbi could have an extra week to stop the murder and fix the mark .
. . but only if she accepts Aaron's job as Reaper, trapping herself in her
crappy town forever, invisible and inaudible to everyone except the newly dead.
But, if she refuses? Her best friend is headed straight for Hell.

***Received the ebook from Month9Books
for an honest review
The
cover is pretty especially her green eyes, and I like the soul glow effect on
the title :)
Okay
when I started reading the book, it was a little slow. This changed, and it was kind of mysterious
with all the intrigues and things Libbi was trying to figure out and fix. Of course, I won’t go into detail because
that would spoil your adventure, but Libbi is an awesome teen lead in the
story.
Aaron
is mysterious, and you aren’t sure what to make of him until the end of the
book :) Of course, there is all sorts of
drama and action going on to keep your attention especially the last half of
the book.
This
is the first book in the series, and while there is an ending, it also leaves
you hanging and wanting book 2 like now.
This is a great start to a new series, and I didn’t realize until the
end how much I liked it and can’t wait to read more. Elizabeth does a great job with details where
you can imagine the story in your head while reading. This would be a great book to add to my
classroom library when I can afford to :)
I
recommend this series to YA fans who want a Grim Reaper story that is new and
has all sorts of things going on in the story :)
Interested in reading???
