Reaper by L.S. Murphy
Expected Publication: Jan 2013
There's no way sixteen year old Quincy Amarante will become the fifth grim reaper. None. Not over her shiny blue Mustang. Her Jimmy Choos. Or her dead body.
She’s supposed to enjoy her sophomore year, not learn about some freaky future Destiny says she has no choice but to fulfill.
It doesn’t take long for Quincy to realize the only way out of the game is to play along especially since Death can find her anyway, anywhere, anytime. And does.
Like when she’s reassuring her friends she wants nothing to do with former best friend Ben Moorland, who’s returned from god-knows-where, and fails. Miserably.
Instead of maintaining her coveted popularity status, Quincy’s goes down like the Titanic.
Maybe ... just maybe ... that’s okay.
It seems, perhaps, becoming a grim reaper isn’t just about the dead but more about a much needed shift in Quincy’s priorities—from who she thinks she wants to be to who she really is.
Totally cool, right? And I would imagine completely hilarious to read. I'm so looking forward to this change in pace in the paranormal scene. ^_^
this sounds great and really funny and quirky to read!

It does sound like a quick read but bound to be an eventful one too. ^_^
DeleteThis definitely sounds totally hilarious!! I'm sure this one is going to be a laugh out loud type book. =) The cover isn't my favorite thing out there, but still, it's pretty cute. I'm going to have to add this one to the TBR!

ReplyDeleteMy WOW and international giveaway
I just recently learned of it as I was floating around goodreads stalking my buddy's TBR lists. ^_^
DeleteGreat pick! This seems like a great read. There are so many great books coming out next year. :)
ReplyDeleteYou think so? I've noticed though, not as may good books next year as there were so far this year. I hope there's not a decline of writers. T_T
