I don’t know what it is about this series, but I love it! Famine better bring his A-Game because he’s about to get whooped (in a humorous way of course).

Also, the only thing I really know about him is that he has green eyes, bronze armor and a scythe...and yet I can already tell I’m going to love this.

Well, I’ve read it. Death is here. Let’s see how he shakes things up. Also, I’m so excited for the highly anticipated reunion of the century. I’m sure it’ll be...enlightening.

my fave out of the series so far, holy shit.
famine and ana are the most likable main characters we've had imo, and their romance and banter is so sweet.
i feel like they were a really good balance of enemies to lovers, and after reading pestilence + war back to back, i was wanting a female main character who actually wasn't gonna try and change their horseman, even understand his cause. and i got exactly that!

Phew😮‍💨 what a ride this series is. I want to jump right into Death but I don’t want it to end. 

Daddy War is still my favorite.

Famine was so complex. He really didn’t have any fascination with humans. Like the others did. He was way closer to knowing what death and destruction were like. That he couldn’t relate to Ana or any humans. 

But seeing him see how Ana still accepted that ugly side of him and didn’t make any moves to try and change him. I think that was my favorite part of the book, it was “I will fix him” but “this is who he is, I love him in spite of it”

The ending was so good too! The interaction between the two brothers. And just knowing how much more we will get in the last book.
