Me for most of this book: Wow there are too many characters I’m so confused.
Me at the end of this book: I would die for these characters.

Beautiful, haunting, laugh out loud funny, I adore Olivie’s writing with every fibre of my being. I loved the framing of the novel with Death’s narration, his sardonic wit gripping me from the very start. I found the amount of characters & the non-linear story a little hard to keep up with at times, but by the end I was utterly sold on this strange band of demigods, angels, demons, ghosts, vampires & mortals, & was rooting for every single love story. A novel that transcends worlds, yet feels like a warm cup of tea & a blanket.
