This was one book that made tears well up in my eyes and gave me all the feels! I enjoyed the love story between Ashana & Poppy and loved that they experienced such a great love at a young age. 

I gave this book 4 stars because of how it ended we went through this whole Journey of Ash dying and the journey of her and poppy crossing paths while Ash is still dead. Only to not get fully happy ending with them being together in the end. It literally is a cliff hanger and if you know me I hate cliff hangers!

I love the concept but wish we'd had more time in the love stage.  I would have felt more invested in their after

It was a fun read, clearly YA but it didn’t feel like the book had any stakes. The characters weren’t developed enough for me to be able to say i felt the urgency or the sadness they were feeling. I liked the premise of teenage reapers, but it was ultimately irrelevant considering the story didn’t focus on it at all, only on the love story. Even the ending was a bit ridiculous, and I’m disappointed the story ended so predictably. Overall it was okay, but I wouldn’t read it again.

I loved this book very much and it's a fantastic and sad story. 
I didn't like the Harry Potter references because I think after the things that she did we should avoid everything JKR like the plague.
