How to Reap a Soul (and Fail Miserably) How to Reap a Soul (and Fail Miserably) by April Kelley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

📖Book Info
Love was never on my to-do list, but now that I have it, I’ll let the world burn before I let anything happen to him.
Grym

I’ve reaped souls for three hundred years without a single mistake. Until Elliot Coyne. I’m supposed to ferry him into the afterlife, not bring him back to life and turn him immortal.

Now HR is threatening me, the world is acting like it might explode, and my reaper brothers are stress-snacking like it’s Armageddon.

Even worse? My soul insists Elliot is my beloved. Reapers aren’t supposed to have those. Are they? Regardless, it’s wildly inconvenient.

Elliot
So I die, wake up immortal and able to walk between realms, not that I know what those actually are.

The guy responsible is an annoyingly hot reaper who apparently broke the universe just to keep me breathing.

We’re suddenly stuck together, hunted by his supernatural bosses, and if we fall for each other it might tear reality apart.

Love isn’t supposed to end the world. Yet here we are.

💭Our Thoughts
” Kissed by Death. Nice.”

Fast-paced, light-hearted, quirky romance that just hit right
Who doesn't want true love?
Obviously, someone or the story wouldn’t work!

Grymley Reaper is, well, as his name insinuates, a Grim Reaper.
Currently, he has his sights on a promotion -
Yeah, the reaping business has an HR department and runs a bit like a corporation.
Who knew?
Anyway
One of the other reapers comes across Elliot in the ER after Elliot's amazing ride and battle against the plastic baby (you got to read it yourself) and realizes he is a Beloved.
Not just any beloved but Gryms

And that is where our adventure begins.

These two are so cute together!!!!
Elliot is all snark and no ducks given, while our Grym is more of a suit and tie workaholic. And he is a cuddler! Who knew reapers were such romantics?
Since they are fated, it's an insta-attraction love thing, so everything goes down pretty quickly
Not a whole lot of no's going on
But then, to Elliot, Grym is a tall drink of cool water

How to Reap a Soul sets up the series and introduces the main players.
The whole who's who and what's what - building the foundation for the series
Absolutely lovable cast!
Elliott's ex and his bestie, as well as the other reapers and demons, and OMG, wait till you meet the Hell Hound, were major players in the story. I loved the diverse personalities and “species.” 😉

The storyline moves quickly but is easy to follow:
Battle of love triggering the possible downfall of the world vs. the opposition 🤷‍♀️

There are several areas where I would have appreciated a bit more detail or filler, but in all honesty, the author did a solid job of providing the reader with just enough information to keep us guessing, flipping pages, and leaving us wanting more.
We end on a happy enough note for now :)
The war lies ahead of us


I had fun with the gang and am looking forward to the next in the series.
If you are looking for a fun read with the cutest romance and lovable characters that don't always follow the norm, then this is for you!
