Interesting story of a young man faced with his impending death and his evaluation of what is important in a life when the devil shows up to bargain with him. He offers the man extra time in exchange for removing things from the world.
Quick read, made me think of things I need to be grateful for, and things that need to be let go of.

2.5? I hate writing bad reviews...
I received a copy of this book from the publisher via net galley.
Started out strong, but then seemed to suffer from an identity crisis. There was just too many different branches, and it didn't remain cohesive enough for me to want to continue on with the series. Yet, it wasn't a horrible book. Mostly I ended up trudging through it. The back story chapters did not end up where I thought they would, and in retrospect it was quite a lengthy way to get there. There was mystery in whodunnit, and I did not figure that one out.

Some light, easy to read short stories. I say short stories, because even though they are intertwined by the people in them, they each read as their own.
As short stories, I loved the concept and the execution. As a novel, I feel that it wasn't put together well enough, and not enough back story and cohesiveness. Some stories developed the characters more to give you an understanding of their motivations, but it was not consistent.

I was going to give up on this book during part 1. I didn't like the tone of Korey and Enchanted's relationship. I'm glad I stuck with it. This book is powerful. Showcasing abuse and the mind/thoughts of the abused and how they are manipulated. And thr end when Tiffany Jackson artfully exposes the injustices of the system that blindly supports those in power, while destroying the lives of victims.
